PER CURIAM:
Mary F. Linville 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 on the reasoning of the
Board. See Linville v. Island Creek Coal Co., No. 04-439-BLA
(Jan. 13, 2005). 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
