The river is also fed by several small tributaries, including the Tesuque and the Nambe. In the summer, the flow decreases due to lower precipitation levels and increased use for irrigation. There are no major dams on the Santa Fe River, but Cochiti Lake serves as a reservoir and flood control structure. Interestingly, the hydrology of the river is affected by the traditional water-sharing practices of the Pueblo people, who have lived in the region for centuries.
