   MEMORANDUM

Salomon Garcia-Rodriguez appeals from the 46-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a deported alien found in the United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Garcia-Rodriguez contends that the district court procedurally erred by neglecting to meaningfully consider and address all of the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) and his request for a downward departure and failing to adequately explain the reasons for the sentence. The record reflects that the district court considered the section 3553(a) factors, provided a reasoned explanation for the sentence, and did not otherwise procedurally err. See United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 991—93 (9th Cir.2008) (en banc); see also United States v. Diaz-Argueta, 564 F.3d 1047, 1051-52 (9th Cir.2009).

Garcia-Rodriguez also contends that his sentence is substantively unreasonable in light of his mitigating personal circumstances and the minor nature of the prior conviction that was the basis for a 16-level enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A)(ii). The record reflects that the 46-month sentence is substantively reasonable in light of the totality of the circumstances and the section 3553(a) factors. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51-52, 128 S.Ct. 586, 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007); cf. United States v. Amezcua-Vasquez, 567 F.3d 1050, 1055-56 (9th Cir.2009).

AFFIRMED.
