The history is followed by documentation of the landscape's existing conditions and then an analysis and evaluation of the historic significance and integrity of the landscapes identified in the National Register of Historic Places documentation. The fourth chapter includes treatment recommendations to guide the rehabilitation of the historic lakebed and the properties associated with the national memorial's period of significance.
