PER CURIAM:

           Robert L. Mosley seeks review of the Benefits Review

Board’s decision and order affirming the administrative law judge’s

denial of black lung benefits pursuant to 30 U.S.C. §§ 901-945

(2000).    Our review of the record discloses that the Board’s

decision   is   based    upon   substantial   evidence    and   is    without

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by

the   Board.    Mosley    v.    Eastern   Assoc.   Coal   Corp.,     LLC,   No.

05-0720-BLA (BRB Apr. 27, 2006).          We dispense with oral argument

because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in

the materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

                                                                   AFFIRMED
