Selon Jean-François Banville, spécialiste en pollution atmosphérique à Environnement Canada, le point d'impact se situe à une distance établie d'une usine. C'est à cette distance qu'est analysé l'air ambiant. Dans ce cas, les concentrations sont simulées à l'aide d'un logiciel de dispersion. 1, record 2, French, - d%C3%A9passement%20des%20normes%20au%20point%20d%27impact
