I'm interested in the 1997-1998, 

If I recall there were no IFC/ IBC then.

Subject: Re: Valve Supervision

Assuming you are in a part of the world applying US codes and  
standards, as already stated the IBC requires NFPA 13 systems to be  
electrically monitored (over 20 sprinklers that is).  The next  
question that comes to mind is what about when other factors drive  
installing sprinklers and the IBC does not require them?  The IBC  
states they too must comply with the code so must be electrically  
supervised.
