Dean A. Miller, proceeding pro se, appeals the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of Robert D. Hannigan, the Warden of the Hutchinson Correctional Facility. In his complaint, Miller alleged that his constitutional rights were being violated by his exposure to environmental tobacco smoke ("ETS"). In light of the fact that the Hutchinson facility had recently adopted a smoking ban and the vague and conclusory nature of Miller's allegations, the district court concluded that no reasonable factfinder could conclude that Hannigan was deliberately indifferent to Miller's right to be free from exposure to ETS. This court reviews a grant of summary judgment de novo, applying the same standards as the district court. See Pietrowski v. Town of Dibble, 134 F.2d 1006, 1008 (10th Cir. 1998).

We have carefully reviewed the parties' briefs on appeal, the district court's Memorandum and Order, and the entire record before this court. Based upon that review, we conclude that the district court committed no reversible error and AFFIRM for substantially those reasons set forth by the district court.
