The primary constituents of the river are water and sediment. There are no major tributaries or dams that significantly affect the flow of the Oconee River near Mount Vernon. Seasonally, the river experiences higher flows in the winter and spring due to increased precipitation and snowmelt. Interestingly, the Oconee River is home to significant populations of freshwater mussels, some of which are endangered. These mussels play an important role in maintaining water quality and are considered an indicator of the health of the river.
