The Supreme Administrative Court quashed the regional court's decision because it held a different view on the necessity of a waste permit. The lower court failed to address whether permit conditions should be set based on the Council Directive 86/278/EEC and the Finnish Waste Act. Consequently, the case was remitted for reconsideration in light of the correct legal interpretation of waste management regulations.

Koska lääninoikeudella oli ollut jäteluvan tarpeesta toinen käsitys, lääninoikeuden päätös kumottiin. Korkein hallintooikeus ei ottanut välittömästi ratkaistavakseen kysymystä siitä, oliko tässä tapauksessa edellytyksiä myöntää toimintaa varten jätelupa tai minkälaisia ehtoja tuonlaiselle luvalle olisi asetettava ottaen muun ohella huomioon valtioneuvoston päätöksen 282/1994 asettamat vaatimukset.
