JERRY E. SMITH, Circuit Judge:
At issue is the priority to be afforded a state's claim on a bankrupt estate, for costs incurred by the state in satisfaction of the estate's post-petition environmental obligations. Because we conclude that such costs are "actual, necessary costs and expenses of preserving the estate," see 11 U.S.C. § 503(b)(1)(A), we affirm the district court's order that they be given priority as administrative expenses.
