ROSSMAN, J.
Petitioner, an inmate at the Oregon State Penitentiary, seeks review of an order finding him guilty of making false statements to staff members and of conspiring to promote and engage in disruptive behavior. He argues that the hearings officer's reliance on statements of a confidential informant violated both his rights to due process under the Fourteenth Amendment and the administrative rules governing disciplinary proceedings. It is apparent, however, on the face of the hearings officer's report, that the hearings officer did not rely on information provided by a confidential informant in reaching his decision. Rather, he relied solely on the fact that petitioner had failed a polygraph examination in which he had denied participating in the conduct charged. Although that aspect of the decision is not assigned as error, because we conclude that it is egregious error appearing on the face of the record, we take notice of it. ORAP 7.19(5).
Although the examination results might be evidence on which the hearings officer could rely to impeach petitioner's testimony, see Wiggett v. OSP, 85 Or. App. 635, 738 P.2d 580 (1987), they are not affirmative evidence that petitioner acted as charged. Solar v. OSP, 87 Or. App. 222, 742 P.2d 611 (1987); Atkins v. OSP, 85 Or. App. 224, 228, 736 P.2d 196 (1987).
Reversed and remanded for reconsideration.
