Abstract
This study proposes a methodology to determine the origin of industrial emissions in order to attribute responsibility to
the industries that pollute nearby towns. The methodology has been applied to the industrial area on the northeastern coast
of Venezuela. This area is close to six densely populated towns. The study also gives the estimated PM10 and SO2 levels in
the towns adjacent to 11 industries, through modeling the dispersion of air pollutants from stationary sources. The model
used has been the Lagrangian particle model LADISMO. The results are discussed by comparing the estimated values by
the model with the limits proposed by the World Health Organization and United States Environmental Protection Agency
