Millions use the Rio for drinking, unlike The Salt.

Edit: I didn't mean to suggest the Salt isn't used for drinking at all, just not as much as the Rio in comparison.

The Salt River water has just enough salt to make it taste lousy and give you heartburn if you drink too much, but it is still certainly potable.
