Mesfin Endale, a native and citizen of Ethiopia, seeks review of the March 8, 2000, decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) affirming the immigration judge’s denial of asylum and withholding of deportation. The Board also, by order of March 8, 2002, denied Endale’s timely motion to reconsider. Endale’s petition for review is untimely as to the March 8, 2000 order. See Stone v. INS, 514 U.S. 386, 405-06, 115 S.Ct. 1537, 131 L.Ed.2d 465 (1995).

Endale’s petition for review is timely as to the Board’s denial of his motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and find that the Board did not abuse its discretion, see 8 C.F.R. § 3.2(a) (2002), in concluding that, based on changed conditions in Ethiopia, Endale did not have a well-founded fear of persecution or entitlement to asylum based on past persecution. See 8 C.F.R. § 208.13(b) (2002); Gonohasa v. INS, 181 F.3d 538, 541-42 (4th Cir. 1999).

We deny as untimely the petition for review as to the Board’s order of March 8, 2000. We deny the petition for review of the March 8, 2002, order upon finding that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion for reconsideration. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before *180 the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

PETITION DENIED.
