I digitally searched NFPA 13 and FMDS 2-2 and no reference to 30,000 sq ft or 2,800 m2 for anything related to ESFR. 40,000sf (3716m2) for the overall area, 100 sf (9.3m2) for max. ESFR head spacing.
About the closest you get to your 30,000 sf area is listed for extra hazard pipe schedule systems, the limitation is 25,000 sf. In NFPA 13, 2007, see 8.2 Craig L.
