Red Sector: Administration

Red Sector: Administration consists of the uppermost levels of Deep Space 12 and is responsible for the overall command and coordination of operations aboard the station. Multiple communications antennaes, sensor telescopes, and the station's auxiliary computer core were located in this section of the station. Traffic Control functions were also handled through the Administration Sector. In addition to these command centers, Red Sector also features accommodations for station crew and visitors. Access to Red Sector was restricted to station personnel and official guests of the United Federation of Planets and Starfleet.

Operations Complex "The Bunker"

Located in the Administrative Section of Deep Space 12 the Operations Complex - or "The Bunker" as it is more affectionately known - is the primary command and control level of the DS12 station. Despite its importance to the mission of the station, the Bunker was installed in 2399 to replace the aging Operations Center for the outpost and began life as Deck One aboard the decommissioned Nova Class Starship USS Auriga.

Executive Officer's Office
	A mirror image of the Station Commander's Office, the Executive Officer's Office is a private work area for the Executive Officer near to the Operations Center of the station. Comprising three compartments, the first chamber provided a large desk area while the adjacent compartment offered a small seating area with table where guests could be received. A privacy door opens to a small bedroom and an attached bathroom with sonic shower, allowing the XO to not have to stray far from Operations in an emergency.
Operations
	Operations, located in the center of "The Bunker", served as the command center for Deep Space 12 and was designed with efficiency in mind. The central command area was at the very center of the circular Operations Chamber in a submerged location with the Commanding Officer's station on the starboard side and the Executive Officer's to port. Directly ahead of the station's commanders was a large Master Situation Table that allowed priority access to station functions and sensor data. Directly ahead of the command area and down into a further sunken area, was one large console that provided traffic control responsibilities and monitored the support craft of the outpost. Due to the Operations Center beginning life on a Science vessel, stand-out stations were not included on the upper level of the Operations Center due to the scientific nature of the design. All remaining workstations were mounted along the entire perimeter of Ops. Directly parallel to the viewscreen, the large Master Systems Display was mounted on the aft bulkhead and featured a large cutaway diagram of the station, providing a detailed overview of the station's operational status. The starboard side of Operations was devoted to external operations and included dedicated Mission Operations, Science, and the Tactical workstation was assigned to the workstation nearest the viewer. Environmental control was overseen from the port workstation closest to the Master Situation Display, while Engineering Control and Ops were housed in the remaining workstations. Entry to Operations was provided by entryways on the port and starboard sides on the upper level that accessed the turbolift lobby. Through turbolift the remaining areas of the Bunker could be accessed.
Station Commander's Office
	The Station Commander's Office began life as the Captain's Quarters aboard the Starship Auriga and were among the largest accommodations aboard the Nova Class vessel. Comprising three compartments, the first chamber provided a large desk area and work terminal for the Station Commander while the adjacent compartment offered a small seating area with table where the Commanding Officer could meet with guests or eat meals. A privacy door opens to a small bedroom and an attached bathroom with sonic shower, allowing the Station Commander to not have to stray far from Operations in an emergency.
Transporter Rooms 1 and 2
	Due to the nature of Deep Space 12's mission profile, two Transporter Rooms have been installed in the Bunker Complex to allow quick access to the Station's Operations Center. While more compact that other Transporter Rooms on the station, the transporter pads in Transporter Rooms 1 and 2 are much smaller than the those found elsewhere on the station and can only accommodate up to four persons at one time.
Ward Room
	The Ward Room was located along the southern chambers of the Bunker and was fitted with three large view ports allowing views outside of the station. The Ward Room offered many comforts and was equipped to provide a relaxed area for briefing. An egg-shaped table was located in the center of the room and was fitted with seven chairs for conferences. Typically, the Sector Commander sat at the head of the table, closest to the windows. A monitor was provided to allow visual aspects to be involved in a briefing. For more comfort, a replicator was provided to allow access to food or drink for long meetings.

Green Sector: Habitation

An essential part of Deep Space 12's overall atmosphere recycling and life-support infrastructure, Green Sector is the primary Habitation Sector for the station. The entire structure of Green Sector supports a massive terrestrial enclosure that simulates the surface of a Class-M world. Divided into zones, such as arts/culture, parks/nature, residential, sightseeing, and recreation; attractions within the Habitation Sector include museums, gardens, restaurants, nightclubs, shops, and bars that supplement those of Orange Sector.

Station Security Headquarters is located inside of the Habitation Sector. Site-to-site public transporters are available to move between zones quickly and Mag-Lev trains allow quick transit throughout the parkland. The simulated sky hides the external shell of the station, which offers additional accommodations for station staff and visitors.

Despite its primary purpose being Habitation, the base of Green Sector includes four massive Gravity Stabilizers (essentially massive Impulse Engines) that are utilized by Deep Space 12 to maintain a stable orbit. Without the stabilizers, the station would lose orbit within 24 hours.

Dreagos Memorial Parkland
	The Dreagos Memorial Parkland, named in honor of the research and terraforming station lost during the Vesuvi event, is a large, domed area aboard Deep Space 12. The Parkland mimics an M-Class world with athletic fields, cultivated woodland, meadows, and even an artificial lake. The ceiling incorporates an artificial sky that could be programmed to simulate day or night, based upon the station's official time. Precipitation can also be simulated depending upon need. Commercial and residential districts have been established in the Dreagos Memorial Parkland, taking advantage of the more natural setting offered by the location. Commerical and residential buildings surround the station's central core in a crescent-shape, almost touching the simulated sky. Apartments are available for assignment to Station personnel and a hotel complex provides accommodation to short term guests to the station. The Plaza, a commercial supplement to the Grand Concourse, is also located in the Dreagos Memorial Parkland.
Arcade
	Located throughout Green Sector, Arcades are gaming establishments that have been built to offer customers fun diversions away from the challenges of their everyday lives. Primarily, Arcades aboard Deep Space 12 feature multiple holosuite theaters that users can rent for variable times (normally one hour) to simulate a wide variety of environments or games. Some Arcades also feature classic games from multiple worlds throughout the Federation including billiard tables, bowling, classic video game cabinets, merchandise games, and pinball machines. While replicators can provide food for customers, some Arcades offer bar service to guests.
Club
	Clubs aboard Deep Space 12 are large, two-level businesses that serve beverages to their customers. Typically, Clubs aboard Deep Space 12 sell a variety of synthale drinks; however, some Clubs have arranged to provide alcoholic beverages to their patrons. Some Clubs also sell snack foods for consumption on their premises, while others serve food from a restaurant menu. By Station regulation Clubs are closed during the day, but are able to open in early evening (approximately 19:00) and close at 03:00 hours. Clubs are permitted to have live entertainment during their business hours. One of the most popular Clubs is Quark's Bar and Gaming House, which is part of the Quark's entertainment franchise. Originally planned for construction in 2383 at the height of the Maelstrom's popularity, plans for Quark's were delayed due to the Federation withdrawal from the Maelstrom in 2385. Commodore Dazad called in a few favors to attract Quark's to the revitalized station in 2399. Quark's is unique in that it is the only Club aboard DS12 to combine the Arcade and Club aesthetic with the open-air upper level serving as a Lounge and the main level featuring a large arcade. Quark's has been granted permission to sell alcohol in addition to synthale.
Gregory MacCray Transport Center
	Named in honor of Vice Admiral Gregory MacCray, the Gregory MacCray Transport Center features dedicated cargo and personnel transporters that link the station to visiting vessels and the New Vulcan Colony. Due to the civilian nature of the Dreagos Memorial Parkland the Gregory MacCray Transport Center more commonly sees civilian usage than Starfleet.
Neighborhoods
	One of the most popular choices for lodging aboard Deep Space 12, the neighborhoods are private residences - based upon Polynesian stylings - that have been constructed in the Dreagos Memorial Parkland. The cabins come in multiple formats including single occupant and family-oriented layouts. The neighborhoods themselves are named after key vessels involved in the Kessok Incident and include: Chairo Domains Dauntless Villas Enterprise Holdings Geronimo Ranches Jonka Homes Sovereign Estates Due to extensive waiting lists for occupancy additional neighborhoods were added in the early 25th Century.
Park Security Center
	The Park Security Center, which combines operations of both civilian and Starfleet Security, provides safety and security to those using the Dreagos Memorial Parkland and its establishments. The dedicated security teams use the Park Security Center to monitor for criminal and unsafe activity and can deploy, using Argo Series Transports, to provide support or apprehend the perpetrator. While a supplement to Station Security, the Park Security Center features its own armory, containment cells, and investigation centers.
Restaurant
	A restaurant is a business that prepares and serves food and drinks to customers with meals generally consumed on the premises, but many restaurants also offer take-out and delivery services. Restaurants on Deep Space 12 vary in their offerings, with a wide variety of cuisines and service models ranging from fast-food restaurants, to family oriented restaurants, to luxury establishments with a diverse clientele. Some restaurants aboard Deep Space 12 offer synthale beverages during normal station operating hours, but cannot provide genuine alcohol.
Shop
	A Shop is a retail establishment that sales products to its customers. While most Shops offer a variety of wares for purchase, some Shops are more specialized and offer specific products such as books, clothes, food, toys, and the like. An assortment of Shops have been established over the years aboard Deep Space 12 with some of the most popular locations having been in operation for over a decade.
Starfleet Academy, Maelstrom Annex
	The Maelstrom Annex of Starfleet Academy was established on the grounds of the former Maelstrom General Hospital in 2430 at the request of the Office of the Federation President. While smaller than most academy annexes, the Maelstrom Annex still features a full catalog of coursework applicable to Starfleet Cadets to ensure they are properly trained to serve within Starfleet upon graduation.
Wright Towers
	Named in honor of the Captain Robert Wright, Captain of the Galaxy Class Starship Dauntless and one of the first victims of the Kessok Incident, is Wright Towers is a large apartment and hotel block located in the Dreagos Memorial Parkland aboard Deep Space 12. Featuring multiple levels overlooking the park, Wright Towers features extensive guest accommodations for station visitors and permanent housing for station personnel and employees on the upper levels. Most diplomatic guests to the station choose to stay in Wright Towers for the terrestrial environment.

Grey Sector: Industrial

The Grey Sector: Industrial is the industrial sector of Deep Space 12. Home to atmosphere monitoring, industrial replicators, and maintenance facilities the Industrial Sector also incorporates the station's primary life support and waste reclamation facilities on its lower levels. The main body of Grey Sector housed the station's primary cargo facility and held the bulk of the station's supplies.

Due to the presence of heavy machinery and shielding, scans and communications are typically unreliable within the Grey Sector. While Grey Sector supports commercial activity within the station, including docking ports allowing for cargo transfer, many areas were restricted to command, security and maintenance personnel due to the sensitive nature of the equipment within the area.

---

Yellow Sector: Maintenance

Located at the base of Deep Space 12, Yellow Sector: Maintenance contains the primary fusion core, fuel tanks, and associated maintenance shops for the station. Because of the incredible amounts of energy produced by this section of the station, and the subsequently needed protective shielding, internal scans of Yellow Sector can be difficult to complete. Due to this, Yellow Sector is restricted to the Senior Staff, Engineering Crews, and assigned Maintenance Teams.

At the base of Yellow Sector, multiple exhaust systems are placed to help maintain the integrity of the station's energy generation systems. Secondary Communications and Sensor Satellites are also installed in this area. In an emergency, Duotronic Processor Cores could be activated in this section should catastrophic failures impact the station's computer systems.
