Description
The Tennessee Consolidated Coal Company ("Company" or "Petitioner") petitions this court to review a final order of the Benefits Review Board ("Board" or "BRB") affirming an award of benefits under the Black Lung Benefits Act ("Act") to claimant Clarence O. Crisp. The Company now argues, as it did before the BRB, that the Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") should have applied the permanent regulations in 20 C.F.R. Part 718 instead of the interim regulations in Part 727, and alternatively, that the ALJ erred in refusing to find rebuttal under 20 C.F.R. § 727.203(b)(3). We conclude that the ALJ did not err in applying the interim regulations in Part 727 to this claim, and that the ALJ's resolution of the factual dispute is supported by substantial evidence. Accordingly, we affirm.
