Trying to not worry too much about the past, two things are clear:

  A) there is much confusion over what "landuse=reservoir" means or should
  mean

  B) there is no documented landuse tagging to describe a parcel that
  contains a (land) buffer and water that is a reservoir.

So what landuse is appropriate for the parcel?
