PER CURIAM:
Betty B Coal Company seeks review of the Benefits Review
Board’s decision and order affirming the administrative law judge’s
order requiring it to reimburse the Black Lung Disability Trust
Fund (“Trust Fund”) for medical benefits paid by the Trust Fund on
behalf of Art Stanley. 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 Betty B Coal Co. v. DOWCP, Nos. 06-0259-BLA;
03-0547-BLA (BRB Nov. 27, 2006; May 28, 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
