Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Charles E. Caldwell 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. Caldwell v. Perry & Hylton, Inc., No. 05-684-BLA (BRB

Jan. 23, 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
