PER CURIAM:

            Valley Camp Coal Company seeks review of the Benefits

Review Board’s decision and order affirming the administrative

law judge’s award of black lung benefits pursuant to 30 U.S.C.

§§ 901-945 (2006).        Our review of the record discloses that the

Board’s    decision   is   based   upon    substantial   evidence      and   is

without reversible error.       Accordingly, we deny the petition for

review for the reasons stated by the Board.              Valley Camp Coal

Co. v. Dobrzynski, No. 10-0429-BLA (B.R.B. July 28, 2011).                   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.

                                                           PETITION DENIED
