non-discriminatory basis to all shippers who meet the eligibility 
requirements for such service.
    Tennessee states that under Rate Schedule FT-H, Tennessee will

transportation quantity (TQ) and allow the shipper to take delivery of 
its scheduled quantity up to a specified maximum hourly delivery 
quantity (MHQ). Under Rate Schedule FT-H, the MHQ must be no less than 
\1/18\th of the TQ and no greater than \1/4\th of the TQ. Tennessee 
will provide the FT-H service only after it determines that it has 
sufficient uncommitted capacity to perform the service requested by a 
shipper. The FT-H service will not degrade the firm primary rights of 
any of Tennessee's existing firm shippers. Rate Schedule FT-H service 
will have the same scheduling and curtailment priority as Tennessee's 
other firm transportation services.
