See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Appellant 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. §§ 901-945 (West 1986 & Supp. 1998). Our review of the record discloses that the Board’s deci- sion is based upon substantial evidence and is without reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the Board. See Evans v. Director, OWCP, No. 98-291-BLA (BRB Nov. 5, 1998). 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 2
