I don't know anything about this particular waterfall but the existence of a pipe doesn't mean anything nefarious here. It definitely doesn't have to mean water was pumped up there unnaturally. It could be that a short segment of pipe was used to keep a river flowing under a segment of rock to control flooding or erosion. I'm not saying that's what it is but on its face this is a non story without context or evidence of water being pumped.
If you had read the article before posting, you would have learned that it was pumped there unnaturally.
Holy cow, even looking at the picture … I spent so much time trying to figure out what the bright yellow thing was that I entirely missed the top of the fall being completely dry
You don’t even need to read the article to know the pipe is supplying the waterfall.
