If you are in Canada these are available from Environment Canada.

Most state highway departments have the info. In Texas (TxDOT)the info is in the Hydrology section, Chapter 2. You can use the formula and the given constants to generate an excel spreadsheet for text export.

Depending on where your are, most DOT or Flood Control Districts have established IDF curves for their respective areas.  In Florida the FDOT publishes them in a drainage manual and also provides formulas to approximate the curves.  I understand that Georgia and N. Carolina do the same

It depends on where (i.e., jurisdiction) the project is? Many agencies provide or refer to an established set of curves.

However, you can develop your own site specific IDF. Just following the method outlines on page 456 of Applied Hydrology by Ven Te Chow, 1988
