The court treated customs proceedings and hazardous-waste obligations as operating in different fields, so the customs label did not extinguish statutory environmental responsibility. It also permitted the containers to be shifted to a customs bonded warehouse, noting that final examination of the cargo was still required and that adequate safeguards could preserve regulatory control while reducing hardship to the petitioner. en-us Fri, 21 Sep 2007 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 25 Dec 2014 21:32:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=122904 Liability under the hazardous-waste regime was held to continue despite withdrawal of customs bills of entry and an attempted re-export, because Rule 15(3) fastens responsibility on the occupier, exporter and importer to ensure safe storage and environmentally sound disposal of illegal transboundary hazardous waste.
