Many people don’t know this, but the U.S.Navy has numerous nuclear reactors in Idaho. The number quoted to me by an ex-navy nukie was around 300.

"Where are we going to get the water when even our farmers can't get enough?" asked Kurt Key, a Payette carpenter.

The reactor would use an estimated 25,000 acre-feet of water annually, more than a quarter of the water stored in Lucky Peak Reservoir

The largest nuclear power facility in the United States is located in the desert about 100 miles east of Phoenix, Arizona.

They manage to operate 3 large nuclear reactors in the Arizona desert with out any water problems. I’ll wager that there is less water there than in Idaho.
