The APA confers a right upon any objector with a sufficient interest in issuance of a highway access permit to qualify as an "interested person" within the intent of N.J.S.A. 52:14B-3.1(a) to submit relevant "data, views or arguments" to the DOT and a corresponding obligation upon the DOT to consider those materials. Even when an evidentiary hearing is not required, an administrative agency may be required to set forth basic findings of fact and conclusions of law for the purpose of informing interested parties and any reviewing tribunal of the basis on which the final decision was reached.
