Home-improvement retailers, state law call for some expertise

Michael Zipp has been building things his whole life, so when his wife, Karen, decided they should do their part for the environment and install solar panels on their Halethorpe home, he immediately thought about climbing on the roof himself.
But after some research, he decided he shouldn't. And as major retailers begin to push a do-it-yourself movement in solar energy, some experts say green-minded homeowners generally shouldn't get on a ladder either - even if it means paying more for installation.

Whatever decision comes out of meetings hosted tomorrow by U.S. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar to negotiate a deal on the proposed Nantucket Sound wind farm is bound to leave somebody unhappy.
Salazar called for the meetings last week on the heels of a finding by the National Park Service that the Sound is eligible to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places based on its cultural and archaeological significance to Indian tribes on Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard.

Eligibility for the list of historic locations considered worthy of preservation does not mean the end for a plan by Cape Wind Associates, LLC, to build 130 turbines in the Sound; but with a compromise unlikely between the company and opponents of the project, Salazar will have to consider the finding as he decides whether to approve the project. Salazar has the final say on Cape Wind because the lead federal agency to review the wind farm - U.S. Minerals Management Service - is a division of Interior.
The participants invited to three meetings tomorrow at Interior headquarters in Washington, D.C., include nearly a dozen Cape and Islands towns, five Indian tribes and opponent and proponent organizations. Salazar will first meet with representatives from the Mashpee Wampanoag, the Wampanoag of Gay Head (Aquinnah) and the Assistant Secretary of Indian Affairs, according to Interior Department spokesman Frank Quimby.
