I have heard of a building in Denver (Owner major telecom) that lost just over 5 PSI and are now bidding a fire pump for their ESFR system. Water suppliers are under no obligation to maintain a system pressure or flow, only meet service requirement for availability.

(Static pressure has fallen 5 psi since construction). If any of you have specific experience with a situation like this I would like to be able to help him with some stories.
