PER CURIAM:
Appellant seeks review of the Benefits Review Board's decision
and order affirming the administrative law judge's denial of waiver
of overpayment of black lung benefits pursuant to 30 U.S.C.A.
§§ 901-945 (West 1986 & Supp. 1996). Our review of the record dis-
closes that the Board's decision is based upon substantial evidence
and is without reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the
reasoning of the Board. Keiffer v. DOWCP, No. 96-147-BLA (BRB). 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
