This sounds like complete and utter bullshite. It may not meet their needs due to certain criteria, but the river is not polluted.
You can't be serious.

rue story. A certain chemical plant I worked at would pull water from the Mississippi River for use in the process. They also had a permit for outflow from the plant into the river for excess water (treated, of course). There was an operating unit whose sole job was to make sure they delivered JUST enough water to the plant to meet their needs. Once that water crossed into the plant, it was too polluted to put back into the river and any excess water pulled into the plant had to be treated at very high cost before it could be flowed back into the river.
This is basically every plant on the river. The advantage of the river is two fold: obtaining water and disposing of water. All you have to do is pull there public permits from DEQ and you will see all their discharge limits of specific pollutant constituents.
