Colin,

We have several series of maps published by the Federal Power Commission
and, later, the DOE's Energy Information Administration in '48, '55,
'57, '77, '78 under the titles "Principal Electric Utility Generating
Stations and Transmission Lines" and "Principal Electric Facilities."  I
don't know how regularly they were published outside of what we have,
but there are sheets dedicated to the states your patron's interested
in. If you'd like b&w copies, let me know.

For more recent maps and/or data sets, you might have to check the DOE,
state utility commissions and/or power industry organizations,
associations, etc. (Note the following from DOE:

Hope this helps.
