This Cultural Landscape Report for Gettysburg National Military Park, Record of Treatment, documents the tremendous effort invested between 1999 and 2014 by the National Park Service and partners to rehabilitate the historic character of the battlefield landscape, while meeting the demands for public access and education that are fundamental to the purpose of the park. The report is organized into two volumes with Volume I containing an introductory chapter, Battlefield Rehabilitation Framework chapter, and Record of Treatment chapter. The Record of Treatment chapter is organized by 15 geographic areas that cover Gettysburg National Military Park, and Volume I presents Area 1 through Area 10. Volume I concludes with period plan and existing conditions mapping that corresponds to these areas. Volume II contains identical introduction and Battlefield Rehabilitation Framework chapters for ease of reference and presents a Record of Treatment chapter covering Area 11 through Area 15 followed by corresponding period plan and existing conditions mapping. The final chapter captures reflective lessons from the planning and implementation of the battlefield landscape rehabilitation. Volume II concludes with appendices addressing removal of non-historic woods and health cuts in historic woodlots, orchards, fences and walls, and Record of Treatment forms to aid in documenting future completed work for the historical record.
