" , 1 -. . Having said all of that, iDeputy Fire Marshal Melissa Fechtel saw "a footnote in very fine' print on Table " B105.1 that I completely missed, Footnote "a" states, "The minimum required fire flow shall be permitted to '. be reduced by 25 perc~nt for Use Group R" This reduces the required fire flow to 1500 gpm and therefore only requires one fire hydrant. This footnote only applies to permits submitted under the 2004 Springfield Fire Code, The footnot~ was dropped in the 2007 code edition, Since Greg's project was submitted under the '04 code, we Can use this footnote, ," " , ' , .- '. . .~, .
