The river is fed by several tributaries, including the Mad River and Hop Brook, and is regulated by dams such as the Beacon Falls Dam. Seasonal trends show that the river has its highest flows during the spring months due to snowmelt and precipitation. Interestingly, the Naugatuck River was once heavily polluted by industry, but has since made a remarkable recovery due to cleanup efforts. Today, it is home to a variety of wildlife, including trout and bald eagles.
