The river is a tributary of Lake Michigan and its flow is influenced by several factors, including precipitation, runoff, and dam releases. The river is also home to several dams, including the Miller Park Dam and the Valley Power Plant Dam. Seasonal trends in flow rates are influenced by snowmelt and rainfall, with the highest flow rates typically occurring in the spring and the lowest rates in the fall. Despite being heavily industrialized in the past, the Menomonee River has undergone significant restoration efforts in recent years, making it a popular destination for recreational activities like kayaking and fishing.
