This study examines the impact of the 2003 opening of two petrochemical plants on the emissions and concentrations of benzene and other volatile organic compounds in ambient air in Montréal’s East End. It looks at trends, analyzes meteorological and descriptive data, and compares emissions reports collected by the National Pollutant Release Inventory.
