What is the test to determine whether a federal agency's interpretation is contrary to the language of the applicable statutes?

The following excerpt is from Tyonek Native Corp. v. Secretary of Interior, 836 F.2d 1237 (9th Cir. 1988):
Because we find that the agency's interpretation is contrary to the language of the applicable statutes, we need not determine the appropriate balance between these conflicting canons. See Fagner v. Heckler, 779 F.2d 541, 543 (9th Cir.1985) (observing that we need not "defer to an agency's interpretation when there are compelling indications that the agency's interpretation is wrong").
