Thanks Ed. I have a copy and see that it is under Hose Allowance,
which I would have glossed over in context with a tank. The room in
question is 496 sf so the idea to divide the room surfaced until
reading the "with no such rooms adjacent" clause.

Allan,
If you have a copy of the 2007 flavor of NFPA 13, look at the new
section
11.1.5.2 (3). As long as the higher hazard areas are enclosed & no
greater
than 400 sf and separated from other higher hazard areas, you're
allowed to
use the duration and hose allowance for the lower hazard. Nice
addition.
