Following oral argument and having considered the briefs and the record, we find no reversible error in the June 9, 2000, decision of the Benefits Review Board, BRB No. 99-0208 BLA, affirming the administrative law judge’s October 29, 1998, decision and order on remand denying benefits.

Accordingly, for the reasons substantially expressed in the opinion of the Benefits Review Board, the petition for review is DENIED.
