The oil was found near the bridge over the canal in Daarlerveen. According to the Vechtstromen water board, the oil comes from a discharge, presumably by a ship. Employees of the water board put oil screens and oil booms in the canal to get the oil out of the water. The oil track is about 200 meters long.
