So the people should build a giant warehouse that uses a bazillion gallons of water that feeds into the warehouse and in the same pipe back to the water system, get wholesale rates and charge consumers the cheaper rate!

Same pipe, just make sure it goes into the warehouse so you can charge people for what leaves.

You want to trust the water a data center with zero regulations is regurgitating?

No, I want the people to buy a warehouse, have the utility run pipe into the building and back out to the water supply, have the warehouse pay wholesale rates and resell it to the people at wholesale after its half second journey through the detour pipe in the warehouse.

Don't hold your breath on that.
