1Opinion of the Court
HANSEN, Circuit Judge.
Bernard Cavegn obtained an award of disability retirement benefits from the Twin City Pipe Fitters Pension Plan (the Plan), but he appealed, challenging the trustees’ determination of the date he became totally and permanently disabled within the meaning of the Plan. The Plan denied his appeal, and Cavegn brought this suit to recover retroactive disability retirement benefits pursuant to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), 29 U.S.C. §§ 1001-1461 (2000). The district court 1 granted summary judgment to the Plan. Cavegn appeals, and we now affirm.
