People affected by wildfires in Northern California in 2017 and 2018 can soon file claims for housing assistance and other immediate needs with Pacific Gas & Electric Co.
They can file their claims online through the website for the utility’s wildfire assistance program as early as this week.
A federal judge overseeing PG&E’s bankruptcy case in May approved a $105 million fund to provide relief for people who lost property during the huge fires.
The fund will cover victims of a series of fires including the Atlas, Camp, Nuns and Tubbs fires.
The deadline to apply for the funds is November 15.
