PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals from the Benefits Review Board's final deci- sion and order denying his claim for benefits under the Black Lung Benefits Act, 30 U.S.C.A. §§ 901-945 (West 1986 & Supp. 1996). We have reviewed the record and the Benefits Review Board's order affirming the decision of the administrative law judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the Benefits Review Board. Taylor v. Director, Office of Workers' Compensation Programs, No. 95-1985-BLA (B.R.B. Jan. 18, 1996). 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
