PER CURIAM:
Norfolk Shipbuilding and Drydock Corporation seeks review of
the Benefits Review Board’s (“Board”) final decision and order
affirming the administrative law judge’s award of permanent partial
disability benefits on second remand pursuant to the Longshore and
Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act, 33 U.S.C.A. §§ 901-50 (West 1986
& Supp. 2000). Our review of the record discloses that the Board’s
decision is based upon substantial evidence and is without revers-
ible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the Board.
See Norfolk Shipbuilding & Drydock Corp. v. Flowers, No. 99-463-BLA
(BRB Jan. 28, 2000). We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-
rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
