McCracken, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF LABOR, Washington, D.C., for Respondents. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Appellant seeks review of the Benefits Review Board's order granting his motion for reconsideration and reaffirming the deci- sion and order affirming the ALJ's decision to deny his application for black lung benefits pursuant to 30 U.S.C.A. §§ 901-945 (West 1986 & Supp. 1996). Our review of the record discloses that the Board's decisions are based upon substantial evidence and are with- out reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the Board. Nuckles v. Clinchfield Corp., No. 94-0403-BLA (B.R.B. Feb. 24, 1995 & Jan. 25, 1996). 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 deci- sional process. AFFIRMED 2
