Remember it's "restore and return". In this case, it means that Intel are cleaning/restoring enough water to more than account for what they take in.
A lot of companies are doing this now to limit their impact on local environments, especially in water starved areas. It wasn't too long ago that a drought in Taiwan was threatening to prevent TSMC from producing chips. Water sustainability efforts are important.

So they are acting as a sort of water filtration/purification plant aswell then beyond what they use ? Good idea, Wonder if other companies will follow.
