this FT Rate Schedule.
1.2 For purposes of determining the availability of service in
processing requests for service hereunder, Transporter shall not
grant any said request for transportation service: (i) for which
capacity is not available on any portion of its system necessary
to provide such service on a firm basis; provided, however, that
