PER CURIAM:
Windsor Coal Company seeks review of the Benefits Review
Board’s decision and order affirming the administrative law judge’s
award of black lung benefits on a claim filed by Edgar J. Huggins
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 deny the
petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board. Windsor
Coal Co. v. Huggins, No. 06-0710-BLA (B.R.B. Aug. 15, 2007). 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.
PETITION DENIED
