Our review of the record discloses that the Board’s decision is based upon substantial evidence and is without reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the Board. See Vandyke & Vandyke Coal Co. v. Dir., Office of Workers’ Comp. Programs, No. 03-305-BLA (BRB Dec. 18, 2003; May 24, 2004). 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 -
