PER CURIAM:

           Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company seeks

review of the Benefits Review Board’s decision and order affirming

the   administrative   law   judge’s   award   of   longshore   survivor’s

benefits on a claim filed by Mary Elston pursuant to 33 U.S.C.

§§ 901-950 (2000).     Our review of the record discloses that the

Board’s decision is based upon substantial evidence and is without

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by

the Board.    Newport News Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Co. v. Director,

OWCP, No. 06-0577 (B.R.B. Feb. 27, 2007).           We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before the court and argument would not

aid the decisional process.



                                                                 AFFIRMED
