SCE Extends More Than 1,000 Offers to Community Members for Eaton Fire Recovery
Relief offered through the Wildfire Recovery Compensation Program totals nearly $380 million.
Southern California Edison today announced a major milestone in the Wildfire Recovery Compensation Program, with more than 1,000 compensation offers extended to individuals and businesses impacted by the Eaton Fire. The program has offered nearly $380 million in relief to more than 2,800 claimants.
"The Eaton Fire had a profound and lasting impact on the community. Each day we're seeing signs of meaningful progress," said Pedro J. Pizarro, president and CEO of Edison International, SCE's parent company. "This program reflects our commitment to provide quick, compassionate support and help community members take the next steps forward. Surpassing 1,000 offers is an important milestone in our efforts to support recovery."
As of March 27, 2026:
- 2,827 claims submitted, consisting of nearly 8,400 individuals, trusts and legal entities
- 1,125 offers extended to 2,810 claimants, totaling nearly $380 million
- Over 400 claimants paid, totaling over $52 million, with more in process
Fast Offers and Payments
The Wildfire Recovery Compensation Program is designed to offer compensation in line with settlement values for similar claims in past wildfire lawsuits, with a more streamlined and faster approach than litigation. The program is voluntary and available through Nov. 30, 2026.
Submitting a claim, on average, takes under two hours. Offers are delivered within 90 days of a fully documented, substantially complete claim. To date:
- Over 50% of offers have already been accepted, with more in the process.
- Offers range from $15.1 million for a claimant with multiple properties to $20,000 for a tenant with non-burn damage.
Payments are made within 30 days after all conditions in the settlement agreement have been satisfied. Many offers and payments are being processed in a fraction of that time.
Those who need help with advancing an existing claim, a status update or assistance with filing a new claim are encouraged to contact the dedicated support team at 888-912-8528.
