Tributaries that contribute to the flow of the river include the Pacolet River and the Tyger River. Some of the dams that affect the flow rate of the river include the Parr Reservoir Dam and the Lake Monticello Dam. Seasonal trends show an increase in flow rate during the spring and summer months due to increased precipitation.
