AFFIRMED.

Before PHILLIPS and WILKINSON, Circuit Judges, and SPROUSE, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:

OPINION

1

Calvin Dunford 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.A. # 8E8E # 901-945 (West 1986 & Supp. 1992) and denying his motion for reconsideration. Our review of the record discloses that the Board's decisions are based upon substantial evidence and that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the Board. Dunford v. Jewell Ridge Coal Co., No. 90-645-BLA (B.R.B. Jan. 28 & July 13, 1992). 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
