Trump Tower uses millions of gallons of Chicago River water a day to heat and cool its 98 floors.
Since its 2009 opening, impact data has been missing or based on 'gobbledygook' math, officials say.
Trump's engineers now say they're "not yet able, as of today, to confirm the accuracy" of their data.

Since opening in 2009, Trump International Hotel & Tower, Donald Trump's massive glass skyscraper in Chicago, has relied on the city's river to heat and cool its 98 floors.
