Figure 2. Detection limits and detectability for air toxics in Canada measured by NAPS from 2009 to 2013. Detection limit for 2,3,7,8-TCDD is the range of values for the 29 dioxin, furan, and dioxin-like PCB congeners. Detection limits for metals and metalloids are the range of reported values over the study period. Detectability bars represent site-specific minimum, all-site average, and site-specific maximum values.
