SoCal Edison makes first compensation payment to Eaton Fire survivors
Southern California Edison, accused of starting the deadly Eaton Fire in the Altadena area, has made its first compensation payment to an Eaton fire survivor or a family of survivors, the utility announced Tuesday.
SoCal Edison began offering compensation through the Wildlife Recovery Compensation Program in September, promising expedited payments for various types of damage or destruction by the January wildfire.
The company did not say who received the compensation, and how much the person/house hold received.
