Hi James,
The link for one of the datasets I'm working with is below. It seems to be openly available, but there's not much discussion on sharing restrictions. The dataset is designed for project developer use and is freely downloadable and they're not trying to hide any data the way PG&E (another local large utility) does.

Thanks for the quick reply and the help!

    In response to the second part of your post; is the publicly
    available data up encumbered by a copyright or other use
    restriction? There's a lot of data available to the public that is
    not available to be used in OSM.

    The first step is to determine if the data is legally available
    for inclusion in the OSM database.
