PER CURIAM:

Launeil Sanders appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his complaint. We have reviewed the record and the

district court’s opinion accepting the recommendation of the

magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we

affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Sanders v. EPA, No.

CA-01-1973-7-13AK (D.S.C. Sept. 21, 2001). 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
