It may not have exactly what you’re looking for, but NFPA 1142 (in particular 
section 8.3) may be helpful.

Subject: [Sprinklerforum] Draft hydrant

I have been asked to design a 6” draft hydrant taking suction from a brackish 
river. I have the items in NFPA 24 section 5.8 addressed, but it does not 
mention materials. The contractor wants to use regular PVC but I need to 
confirm that something special is not required. Any thoughts on this or where I 
could find the information?
