    PER CURIAM.
    Tina Yvette Lee, also known as Tina Yvonne Lee, appeals the drug-related
    sentence imposed by the district court under the sentencing guidelines. For reversal,
    Lee contends the district court improperly refused to grant Lee's motion for a
    downward departure. We reject Lee's argument. The record shows the district court
    considered Lee's individual circumstances and understood its authority to depart
    downward; thus, the district court's refusal to depart is not reviewable on appeal. See
    United States v. Hernandez-Reyes, 
    114 F.3d 800
    , 802-03 (8th Cir. 1997). We affirm
    Lee's sentence. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
