I recently notice a similar problem here in Spokane on the CycleMap where the Spokane River has seemingly escaped its bounds and flooded a good portion of the Spokane Valley:

Put the wrong link up. This should work better:

I may have once flooded the entire US (only in osmarender) by sticking an apparently bad tag onto the Siletz River.
A few days after adding "natural=water" onto the riverbank I randomly went to the tiles@home map and saw everyone was drowning. I knew that it hadn't always been that way, but assumed it was the result of somebody else's waterway edits. After we remained flooded for quite some time though, I removed the tag "just in case" and lo, the waters receded and the great flood was over.
Though T@H doesn't show any massive flooding in Oregon, it could still be a similar tagging issue.
