They aren't on the falls themselves... the water is diverted upstream and run through channels to where it can fall through tubes that have been bored into the cliffs...
Erosion makes putting the turbines on the falls expensive because you'd have to rebuild from damage of falling rocks... plus when you cannel it into narrow tubes it increases the velocity..
