MEMORANDUM **

Darcy Ira Thigpen appeals from the district court’s order denying his motion for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) based on the retroactive application of Amendment 706 to the Sentence Guidelines provisions governing crack cocaine. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Thigpen contends that the district court erred by denying his motion for a sentence reduction under Amendment 706 because his sentence was based, in part, on a sentencing range calculated under the Drug Quantity Table in U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1. This contention fails because Thigpen qualified as a career offender under U.S.S.G. § 4B1.1. Because the district court sentenced Thigpen based on a sentencing range calculated under § 4B1.1, he is not eligible for a sentence reduction under Amendment 706. See United States v. Wesson, 583 F.3d 728, 731 (9th Cir. 2009).

AFFIRMED.
