The TEMPEST Inlet Control Devices are used to control flow into storm sewers during peak flow events.

TEMPEST ICD's are designed to allow a specified flow volume out of a catchbasin at a specified head. This causes the excess stormwater to be temporarily stored above ground. This approach conserves pipe capacity so that catchbasins upstream do not become uncontrollably surcharged, which could lead to flooding. TEMPEST ICD’s incorporate a special design that prevents clogging, while providing odor and floatable control. IPEX ICDs can also be fabricated to fit any type of pipe – PVC, concrete, clay or a host of other products.
