EFSN Leading Push for $200K Housing Advances from SCE

EFSN continues to press SCE to advance up to $200,000 per household—an advance against amounts Edison already owes, not new compensation—so families don’t fall into homelessness, including renters and homeowners who haven’t signed waivers. These housing advances are reimbursable: Edison can recover the costs through the Wildfire Fund, and under the state-approved framework any remainder is covered through the Fund or, if necessary, by ratepayers. Funds would be disbursed in small increments over time, then repaid as settlements are issued, so the capital is only held temporarily; program administration costs are fully reimbursable as well.
