PER CURIAM:

              John    T.    May     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 (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.                        May v. Mountaineer

Coal   Dev.    Co.,    No.       07-0671    BLA   (B.R.B.     May    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
