Partly granted
The Board granted the petition to reopen a claim for entitlement to service connection for hearing loss based on new and material evidence, but denied the claim for service connection.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not persuasively weigh against finding that the Veteran had bilateral hearing loss for VA compensation purposes at any time during or approximate to the pendency of the claim.
