On Petition for Review of an Order of the Benefits Review Board. (97-547-BLA) Submitted: March 31, 1998 Decided: April 20, 1998 Before LUTTIG, WILLIAMS, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Eugene P. Wampler, Petitioner Pro Se. Sean B. Epstein, PIETRAGALLO, BOSICK & GORDON, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Christian P. Barber, Jennifer U. Toth, 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 Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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 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. 1997). 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. Wampler v. Michael Trucking Co., No. 97-547-BLA (BRB Dec. 22, 1997). We dis- pense 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
