The river is an important water source for several constituents, including farmers and municipalities. The river's flow is influenced by several tributaries, including the Frenchman River and the Medicine Creek. The Harlan County Dam also affects the river's flow, as it regulates water levels. The river experiences seasonal trends, with higher flows in the spring and lower flows in the summer. Interestingly, the Republican River is known for its "yoga" bends, where the river flows at sharp angles, which can be seen from aerial views.
