PER CURIAM:
Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Co. seeks review of the
Benefits Review Board’s decision and order affirming the
administrative law judge’s award of temporary partial disability
benefits pursuant to 33 U.S.C.A. §§ 901-950 (West 2001). 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 Newport
News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Co. v. Jacobs, No. 00-1180 (B.R.B.
Sept. 14, 2001). 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
