Re-export of illegally imported municipal solid waste under the hazardous waste regime means return to the country of origin, not shipment to a third country, and domestic disposal through cement kilns or waste-to-energy facilities is inconsistent with the statutory scheme and the Basel Convention. The writ challenge to the confiscation and re-export orders failed because the importers had accepted the adverse adjudication findings, paid penalties and did not pursue the available statutory appeal.
