MEMORANDUM**
Ricardo Gama-Buenrostro appeals his conviction and 12-month and 1-day sentence for importation of marijuana, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 952 and 960. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Gama-Buenrostro first contends 21 U.S.C. §§ 952 and 960 are facially unconstitutional. This argument is precluded by United States v. Mendoza-Paz, 286 F.3d 1104, 1110 (9th Cir.2002) (§ 960) and United States v. Varelar-Rivera, 279 F.3d 1174, 1175 n. 1 (9th Cir.2002) (§ 952).
*307Gama-Buenrostro next contends 21 U.S.C. §§ 952 and 960 require the government to plead and prove his knowledge of the drug quantity and type. This argument is precluded by United States v. Carranza, 289 F.3d 634, 644 (9th Cir.2002).
AFFIRMED.

 This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as may be provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
