General characteristics of the Ufa River downstream and the city of Ufa water intakes are given. Current hydrological regime and channel processes of the Ufa River downstream have been studied in the Ufa urban water intakes area through the outcomes of the comprehensive detailed investigations of three reaches in the 2016–2017 period, namely, reach 1: the Northern Infiltration water intake area, the Northern Plunge water intake area, and the Shaksha water intake area; reach 2: TPP-2 water intake area; and reach 3: the southern infiltration water intake area. The regularities of the Pavlovsk reservoir impact upon the current hydrological regime of the said reaches have been stated. We have analyzed the Ufa River level lowering dynamics at the Shaksha water gauging post over the period from 1961 to 2017. We compared changes of the level incurred by external factors and by the river water content and we have found the causes of these level changes.
