Pacific Power, part of PacifiCorp, said Monday it has agreed to a $178 settlement with over 400 Oregon plaintiffs in the latest multimillion-dollar payout related to the deadly 2020 wildfires that ravaged the state.
The majority of the 403 plaintiffs in the settlement were affected by the Echo Mountain Complex Fire that devastated Oregon’s central coast, said George McCoy, one of the plaintiffs' attorneys, while others were impacted by the Santiam Fire that raged east of the state capital Salem in northwestern Oregon.
