Before MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, RICHARD S. ARNOLD, and FAGG,
      Circuit Judges.
                         ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Daniel Anthony Provancial pleaded guilty to committing voluntary manslaughter
within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States, see 18 U.S.C. § 1112, and was
sentenced to five years and three months of imprisonment to be followed by a three-
year period of supervised release. His supervised release was revoked for alcohol and
drug use, and he received a two-year jail sentence. Mr. Provancial then filed a notice
of appeal. His attorney moved to withdraw and filed a brief pursuant to Anders v.
California, 

(1967). Although given the opportunity to do so, Mr.
Provancial has not filed a pro se supplemental brief.
       Among the conditions of Mr. Provancial's supervised release were substance-
abuse treatment and abstinence from alcohol and drugs. The District Court1 found that,
a few days before his period of release was to begin, Mr. Provancial reported to his
halfway house intoxicated. He was then sent to a work-release program. While placed
there, he went to a bar and drank alcohol. He later failed two drug tests and was
arrested for marijuana use. He admits to two of these incidents, one involving alcohol
and one involving marijuana.

        In imposing Mr. Provancial's new sentence, the District Court expressly
considered the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. §§ 3553 and 3583(e). One of these factors
is the sentencing range recommended in U.S.S.G. § 7B1.3, which in this case was three
to nine months. The provisions of Chapter Seven are merely advisory, however. See
United States v. Kaniss, 

, 968 (8th Cir. 1998). Because Mr. Provancial's
supervised release resulted from a Class C felony, see 18 U.S.C. § 3559(a)(3), the
upper end of his sentencing range on revocation was two years, as determined by 18
U.S.C. § 3583(e). The District Court judged that the two-year maximum sentence was
appropriate because Mr. Provancial had failed two drug tests while under a court order
to participate in substance-abuse treatment, and, when confronted about his drug use,
had told his probation officer that he didn't see a problem with what he was doing. The
District Court's judgment was not an abuse of discretion.

      Our independent review of the record, see Penson v. Ohio, 

(1988),
reveals no non-frivolous issues for appeal. We therefore affirm the District Court's
judgment and grant counsel's motion to withdraw.
