MEMORANDUM**
Maurillo Rojas-Millan appeals his 151-month sentence imposed following our remand for resentencing in United States v. Rojas-Millan, 234 F.3d 464 (9th Cir.2000). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3742, and we affirm.
Rojas-Millan contends that the district court erred under Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), by imposing a sentence based on an unproven quantity of methamphetamine.
The statutory maximum for an unspecified amount of methamphetamine is twenty years. See 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(C). Because Rojas-Millan’s 151-month sen*548tence was substantially less than the statutory maximum, the Supreme Court ruling in Apprendi is not implicated. See United States v. Hernandez-Guardado, 228 F.3d 1017, 1027 (9th Cir.2000).
Rojas-Millan also contends that the term “statutory maximum” refers to the maximum provided for by the sentencing guidelines. He is mistaken. See United States v. Pearson, 274 F.3d 1225, 1234 n.9 (9th Cir.2001) (stating that “statutory maximum” refers to the maximum term set by Congress, not the sentencing guidelines). Accordingly, the district court did not err in its imposition of sentence.
AFFIRMED.
