Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
Orlando Romero Contreras appeals the denial of his motion for a further reduction of his sentence. 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). The district court sentenced Contreras to concurrent terms of 408 months of imprisonment for conspiring to possess and for possessing with intent to distribute cocaine and cocaine base. 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1), 841(b)(1), 846. Later, the district court reduced Contreras's sentences to concurrent terms of 293 months of imprisonment. Contreras sought a further reduction based on a fast-track program established by the Department of Justice. We affirm.
The district court did not err. A district court may sometimes reduce a sentence of imprisonment when it was based on a guidelines range that has since been lowered, United States Sentencing Guidelines Manual § lB1.10(l)(l)-(2), (c), but Contreras cannot obtain a reduction of his sentence based on a program created by the Department of Justice.
We AFFIRM the denial of Contreras's motion to reduce his sentence.
