It employs an integrated, multimedia fate and transport modelling, multi-exposure pathways, and a multiple-receptors risk assessment model to evaluate risks may occur from long-term multimedia releases of chemicals from industrial emissions. To detail capabilities of numerical code the paper shows the application at a well known case of contamination. In particular the paper describes the results of the multi-
