The full scope of a massive diesel spill at an Irving truck stop in Woodstock , New Brunswick , only became evident in late February .

Documents show as much as 100,000 litres of diesel escaped from the storage tank into the surrounding environment.

The far-reaching impact of the spill continues to affect businesses and homeowners surrounding the truck stop and restaurant.

The Department of Environment officials declined to answer questions surrounding its investigation of the nature of the leak, directing the media to the company owner. Irving officials have not responded to media inquiries. While cleanup and mitigation efforts continue, neither government nor company officials have offered a report about the spread of the contaminant, including whether it reached the surrounding watershed or dispersed into the groundwater tables..
