PER CURIAM:

             Gerald   Lamont   Steele        appeals   the   district     court’s

order   denying   his   motion    for    a    sentence    reduction     under    18

U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006).             We have reviewed the record and

find no reversible error.         See United States v. Hood, 556 F.3d

226, 232-33 (4th Cir. 2009).             Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court.              United States v. Steele,

No. 3:01-cr-00216-MR-11 (W.D.N.C. Apr. 6, 2009).                      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 in the decisional process.

                                                                         AFFIRMED
