Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM:

PER CURIAM:

Jones & Laughlin Steel Corporation petitions for review of final Benefits Review Board orders of March 24,1983 and January 10, 1983. The petitioner, the respondent Director, Office of Workers’ Compensation, and the respondent Gerald Wertz, a claimant of benefits under the Longshoremen’s and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act, all concede that the Benefits Review Board lacked jurisdiction to review the orders in question. Those orders were supplementary compensation orders entered pursuant to 33 U.S.C. § 918(a), which provides that “supplementary orders of the deputy commissioner shall be final.” Thus it is clear that the parties’ jurisdictional concession is correct. The orders of the Benefits Review Board dated March 24, 1983 and January 10, 1983 will be vacated. No costs.
