# §35.6800. Superfund State Contract.


A Superfund State Contract (SSC) with a State is required before EPA can obligate or expend funds for a remedial action at a site within the State and before EPA or a political subdivision can conduct the remedial action. An SSC also ensures State or Indian Tribe involvement consistent with CERCLA sections [121(f)](/cfr/40/121.md?p=f) and [126](/cfr/40/126.md), respectively, and obtains the required [section 104](/cfr/40/104.md) assurances (See [§ 35.6105(b)](/cfr/40/35.6105.md?p=b)). An SSC may also be used to document the roles and responsibilities of a State, Indian Tribe, and political subdivision during any response action at a site. A political subdivision may be a signatory to the SSC.
