MEMORANDUM **

Rodolfo Herrera Mena, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) removal order. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo whether a particular conviction constitutes an aggravated felony, Randhawa v. Ashcroft, 298 F.3d 1148, 1151 (9th Cir. 2002), and we deny the petition for review.

The IJ properly determined that Herrera Mena is removable as an aggravated felon under 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii) because his conviction under California Health & Safety Code § 11351 was for “illicit trafficking in a controlled substance” as defined by 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(43)(B). See Rendon v. Mukasey, 520 F.3d 967, 976 (9th Cir. 2008) (“[Possession of a controlled substance with the intent to sell contains a trafficking element and is an aggravated felony.”). We reject Herrera Mena’s contention that the record of conviction was insufficient to *847 establish that his conviction related to a federally controlled substance. See United States v. Alvarez, 972 F.2d 1000, 1005-06 (9th Cir. 1992), overruled on other grounds by Kawashima v. Mukasey, 530 F.3d 1111 (9th Cir. 2008).

Petitioner’s remaining contentions lack merit.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
