MEMORANDUM ***

1. The Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) and Benefits Review Board (Board) correctly applied 33 U.S.C. § 910(a) to calculate Respondent David Guthrie’s average weekly wage. There is no evidence in the record that Guthrie’s employment was seasonal or intermittent. See Matulic v. Director, OWCP, 154 F.3d 1052, 1058 (9th Cir. 1998). It is undisputed that Guthrie worked 228 days in the fifty-two weeks preceding his injury, or 87.7% of the total working days. Because Guthrie worked more than 75% of the workdays in the year, the presumption that § 910(a) applies is unrebutted. See id. Our prior ruling in Matulic dictates the outcome of this issue. United States v. Lynch, 367 F.3d 1148, 1158 (9th Cir. 2004) (recognizing that ordinarily, one panel may not overrule another).

2. The ALJ and Board properly based their calculations on a work year of 260 working days. The ALJ’s determination that Guthrie was a five-day worker has not been challenged on appeal. Thus, under the plain language of the statute, “there are 260 total working days in the measuring year.” Stevedoring Servs. of America v. Price, 382 F.3d 878, 884 (9th Cir. 2004); 33 U.S.C. § 910(a).

PETITION DENIED.
