PER CURIAM:
G.R. seeks review of the Benefits Review Board’s
decision and order affirming the administrative law judge’s
award of longshore disability benefits pursuant to 33 U.S.C.
§§ 901-950 (2006). 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. G.R. v. APM
Terminals, Inc., No. 08-0435 (B.R.B. Sept. 29, 2008). 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
