Status: deprecated

Tag used in National Hydrography Dataset imports, not used by mappers, usage is decreasing[1].

It is recommended to use proper waterway=* instead as it is standard, supported and expected by data consumers.

It adds nothing of value for any way tagged already with proper waterway=* value.
