The canal receives flow from Lake Okeechobee and contributes to the Caloosahatchee River. There are no major tributaries or dams associated with the canal. The flow in the canal is influenced by seasonal rainfall patterns and water management practices. During the wet season, the canal experiences high flows, and during the dry season, flows decrease. An interesting fact about the canal is that it was constructed in the early 1900s to drain the Everglades for agricultural purposes, but it now also serves as an important conveyance for water supply and flood control.
