  "textContent": "By APRIL EHRLICH/Oregon Public Broadcasting PacifiCorp has agreed to pay $575 million in a settlement with the federal government over six wildfires in Oregon and California, including the Echo Mountan fire in Lincln County. Since 2020, the federal government has filed multiple lawsuits against PacifiCorp, an electrical utility owned by Berkshire Hathaway and the parent company of Pacific Power. The government accused PacifiCorp of negligence, alleging poorly maintained equipment sparked multiple fires that burned across thousands of acres of national forests. This settlement resolves those claims. PacifiCorp continues to deny liability. The fires include four that burned over the 2020\n\nThe post PacificCorp reaches $575 million settlement with federal agencies over 2020 wildfires appeared first on Lincoln Chronicle.",
