Clear, Defensible Air Quality Assessments for Regulatory Success
Vertex’s Air Dispersion Modelling team delivers accurate, regulator ready assessments that support permitting, compliance, and informed environmental decision making. Using industry recognized tools such as AERMOD, AERSCREEN, and CALPUFF, we provide both screening-level evaluations and full-scale dispersion analyses tailored to each project’s requirements. Whether supporting new developments, equipment modifications, or complex regulatory applications, our specialists ensure results are clear, defensible, and aligned with provincial and federal air quality standards. Our work follows established frameworks including, the Canadian Ambient Air Quality Standards, Alberta Ambient Air Quality Objectives, and applicable guidelines across Canada.
Our team applies advanced modelling techniques and regulatory expertise to evaluate how emissions behave in real-world conditions.
- Screening Level Modelling
- Full Dispersion Modelling
- Regulatory Compliance Assessments
- Emission Scenario and Mitigation Analysis
These services allow us to identify potential air quality impacts early, assess complex emission scenarios, and provide actionable insights that support confident project planning and approval.
Vertex also delivers detailed reporting and analysis to support regulatory submissions and project decision-making. Our team provides:
- AERSCREEN assessments for early stage permitting and feasibility
- Advanced multi source dispersion modelling with terrain and building considerations
- Air quality compliance evaluations against applicable regulatory thresholds
- Emission scenario reviews with practical mitigation recommendations
- Transparent, regulator ready documentation and reporting
These deliverables help clients demonstrate compliance, streamline approvals, and better understand how emissions may impact surrounding environments and communities throughout the project lifecycle.
