Jose Ricardo Corona appeals the 37-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for possession with intent to distribute in excess of 100 kilograms of marihuana. Corona argues for the first time on appeal that the district court erred by denying him a downward adjustment under the safety-valve provision in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(f) and U.S.S.G. § 5C1.2.

The safety valve allows for sentencing below the statutory mandatory minimum sentence when certain conditions are met. Because the district court applied the safety valve and sentenced Corona below the five-year statutory mandatory minimum sentence in 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(B), we affirm the district court’s judgment.

AFFIRMED.
