In June 2009, the final GHG Inventory report, which also
included the entire community wide inventory analysis, not
just the municipal inventory—which had been recom-
mended to also be included by NCEC, was presented to
City Council.
The results of the inventory indicated that our residential
homes and vehicles are the largest contributors to GHGs in
our community.
As of 2012, there have been no further updates to the cur-
rent GHG inventory. This is something NCEC would like
to see changed. One of the goals set forth for our organiza-
tion this year is to reach out to the City and encourage an
update to the baseline study that was completed. NCEC

US MAYORAL CLIMATE PROTECTION AGREEMENT
Under the Agreement, participating cities commit to take following three actions:
1) Strive to meet or beat the Kyoto Protocol targets in their own communities, through actions ranging from anti-sprawl land-use policies
to urban forest restoration projects to public information campaigns;
2) Urge their state governments, and the federal government, to enact policies and programs to meet or beat the greenhouse gas emission
reduction target suggested for the United States in the Kyoto Protocol -- 7% reduction from 1990 levels by 2012; and
3) Urge the U.S. Congress to pass the bipartisan greenhouse gas reduction legislation, which would establish a national emission trading
system

Naperville Legacy Tree Protection Program Continues
Content from: www.naperville.il.us/eab.aspx
The City of Naperville is proud to announce that 2012 marks the third year of participation in the Legacy Tree Project (LTP), a part-
nership with Valent Professional Products aimed at building community awareness about options for responding to emerald ash borer
(EAB) and motivating residents to take action.
Initiated in 2010 and continuing through 2014, the 12 communities selected across the Midwest for participation in the LTP receive
annual treatment with Safari® insecticide for approximately 200 ash trees on public property. The project, including materials and
labor, is fully funded by Valent Professional Products. There is no cost to taxpayers. Naperville’s parkway ash trees enrolled in this
program will soon receive their third annual treatment with the Safari® product.
“The City was very fortunate to be selected as a partner in the LTP,” City Forestry and Parkways Supervisor Jack Mitz said. “The
trees treated as part of this program are showing positive signs of good health. I encourage homeowners with ash trees on their private
property to consult an arborist promptly for an assessment of their tree health. If a tree is still healthy enough to warrant treatment and
a resident wishes to save it from EAB, the treatment of choice should be initiated in the next several weeks.”
Since 2008 when the EAB was first discovered in Naperville, the Department of Public Works has focused on controlling the spread
of the EAB through the implementation of a cost-effective strategy that includes treatment, removal of infested trees and a public
education program. The City’s Forestry Division works with 10 certified arborists that are trained to look for signs of EAB presence.
More information about the EAB, including symptoms of infestation and treatment options, is available at www.naperville.il.us/
eab.aspx.
“The emerald ash borer program is a great example of a program with strong community involvement,” Department of Public Works
Director Dick Dublinski said. “The City of Naperville continues to implement an aggressive multi-year treatment plan for all healthy
ash trees located in the City’s parkways. The involvement of the LTP and the support of the Naperville Area Homeowners Confedera-
tion have been an important part of our treatment and education program.”
