III. ANALYSIS AND EVALUATION (continued)

MANAGEMENT ZONES

Management zones are areas that have similar historical significance, degree of site disturbance or impact, ownership and management boundaries, and consistent land uses. Management zones are valuable as a tool to identify and establish appropriate types of preservation treatment for the landscape of Fort Vancouver.

ZONE I Areas with historic significance relating to the HBC period with few site disturbances, the highest potential for interpretation, and are owned by the National Park Service. Reconstructed and interpretive features are included in these areas.
ZONE II Areas with historic significance relating to the HBC period, with more site disturbances than Zone I, a reduced interpretive potential, and are owned by NPS.
ZONE III Areas with historic significance related to both the HBC period and Vancouver Barracks, but with potentially high historic integrity primarily associated with Vancouver Barracks, and owned by NPS.
IIIa Area that meets Zone III criteria and currently serves as the NPS administrative/visitor center.
ZONE IV Areas with historic significance related to both HBC period and Vancouver Barracks, but with potentially high historic integrity primarily associated with Vancouver Barracks, and currently owned and managed by the army.
ZONE V Areas with a high degree of historic significance related to the HBC period, but with little or no potential for interpretation due to extensive site disturbance. Areas are owned by NPS.
