Naperville is a DuPage/Will County city west of Chicago that has grown into Illinois's fourth-largest city, where land clearing demand spans the continued residential development in the city's western growth areas, major commercial corridor expansion along the Route 59 and I-88 corridors, and the ongoing management of the city's extensive natural area and creek corridor preservation network. DuPage County's glaciated terrain at Naperville has relatively flat to gently rolling character with the DuPage River creating the primary drainage, and Illinois EPA Construction Site Stormwater NPDES permit coverage is required for disturbances exceeding one acre.
Bush honeysuckle and garlic mustard are extensively established in Naperville's creek corridor woodland understory, and multiflora rose and Japanese barberry are established in suburban woodland edges throughout the city's preserved natural areas.
