Douglas Richard Hewitt appeals the denial of his motion for a reduction of sentence. 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). We affirm.

We review de novo conclusions about the scope of the legal authority of the district court under section 3582(c)(2). United States v. Jones, 548 F.3d 1366, 1368 (11th Cir. 2008).

Amendment 706 to the Sentencing Guidelines reduced base offense levels for crack cocaine offenses. If a defendant was responsible for at least 4.5 kilograms of crack cocaine, Amendment 706 does not reduce his applicable guideline range, and he is ineligible for a sentence reduction under section 3582(c)(2). Jones, 548 F.3d at 1369. The decision of the Supreme Court in United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), does not provide an independent basis to reduce his sentence. Jones, 548 F.3d at 1369.

Hewitt was ineligible for a sentence reduction under section 3582(c)(2). Jones, 548 F.3d at 1369. During Hewitt’s original sentencing, the district court adopted the finding in the presentence investigation report that Hewitt was responsible for in excess of 5 kilograms of crack cocaine. We affirm the denial of Hewitt’s motion for a reduction of sentence.

AFFIRMED.
