I'm confused, why would they consume water? Why wouldn't they water cool with a closed loop system, or, better yet, a system that draws water from these rivers, and dumps the warm water back in?
Dumping warm water back into these systems usually is even worse as it can cause a host of issues for wildlife. A closed loop system should definitely be used though.
