Subject: [EXTERNAL] Code requiring inclusion of possible concurrent flow

We have run into a dock FW system design where multiple automatic flushing 
valves are being provided on the system to prevent freezing by automatically 
flowing water at temps below 40°F to the order of 300 gpm.  Though this flow 
should absolutely be included in the system demand flow, I am having difficulty 
finding code direction requiring its inclusion in hydraulic demands other than 
where NFPA 13R systems may have to account for concurrent domestic flows.

Any code sections come to mind?
