PER CURIAM:
David Brewster 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.
§§ 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. Brewster v.
Westmoreland Coal Co., Inc., No. 07-0835-BLA (B.R.B. June 30,
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
