PER CURIAM:

       Salathiel D. Harrison appeals the 30-month sentence imposed upon revocation of

his supervised release and probation. Harrison’s counsel has filed a brief pursuant to

Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), stating that there are no potentially meritorious

grounds for appeal but questioning whether the district court properly revoked Harrison’s

supervised release and imposed reasonable sentences. We affirm.

       We review a district court’s revocation of supervised release for abuse of discretion

and its underlying factual findings for clear error. United States v. Padgett, 788 F.3d 370,

373 (4th Cir. 2015). To revoke a supervised release term, the district court need only find

by a preponderance of the evidence that the defendant violated a condition of his supervised

release. 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(3) (2018). Harrison’s supervised release and probation

conditions included that he “not commit another federal, state, or local crime,” and

Harrison admitted that he committed a new offense for which he had already pled guilty

and been convicted. Accordingly, the district court did not abuse its discretion in revoking

Harrison’s supervised release and probation.

       With respect to the sentences, “[a] district court has broad discretion when imposing

a sentence upon revocation of supervised release.” United States v. Webb, 738 F.3d 638,

640 (4th Cir. 2013). “We will affirm a revocation sentence if it is within the statutory

maximum and is not plainly unreasonable.” Id. (internal quotation marks omitted). In

reviewing a revocation sentence, “we first must determine whether the sentence is

procedurally or substantively reasonable,” evaluating the same general considerations

employed in our review of original sentences. United States v. Slappy, 872 F.3d 202, 207

                                             3
(4th Cir. 2017). If we find a sentence unreasonable, then we proceed to determine whether

it is “plainly” so. Webb, 738 F.3d at 640.

       “A revocation sentence is procedurally reasonable if the district court adequately

explains the chosen sentence after considering the Sentencing Guidelines’ nonbinding

Chapter Seven policy statements and the applicable 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) [(2018)] factors.”

Slappy, 872 F.3d at 207 (footnote omitted). The “sentence is substantively reasonable if

the court sufficiently states a proper basis for its conclusion that the defendant should

receive the sentence imposed.” Id. (alteration and internal quotation marks omitted).

       Based on our review of the record, we conclude that Harrison’s sentences are

procedurally and substantively reasonable. The district court properly calculated the

applicable policy statement ranges, considered the relevant 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors,

and explained how they supported the chosen sentences. The court’s explanation included

a fact-specific discussion of the nature and circumstances of the offense, Harrison’s history

and characteristics, and the appropriate balance between deterrence and rehabilitation. See

18 U.S.C. § 3553(a). Based on these factors, the court sentenced Harrison within the

respective policy statement ranges, at or below the maximum sentences allowed by statute.

See 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(3).

       In accordance with Anders, we have reviewed the entire record in these appeals and

have found no meritorious issues for appeal. We therefore affirm the district court’s

revocation judgments. This court requires that counsel inform Harrison, in writing, of the

right to petition the Supreme Court of the United States for further review. If Harrison

requests that a petition be filed, but counsel believes that such a petition would be frivolous,

                                               4
then counsel may move in this court for leave to withdraw from representation. Counsel’s

motion must state that a copy thereof was served on Harrison. We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                                             AFFIRMED
