Historically, the river played a significant role in powering sawmills and gristmills in the area. Today, it is used for recreational activities such as fishing and kayaking. The hydrology of the Little Ausable River is influenced by several reservoirs and dams, including the Chazy Lake Dam and the Alice T. Miner Dam. These structures provide flood control and hydroelectric power to the region. Additionally, the river is used for agricultural irrigation in some areas. Despite being a relatively small river, the Little Ausable River has played an important role in the history and development of northern New York.
