yes, there are regulations governing radio noise from power lines.
i don't have the references here, but could dig them up at work.  i
believe the best regulations are the fcc's, but they are of course
aimed at broadcast interference (measurement taken near the line
at about 1mhz is one i remember off hand).  there may also be state 
regulations, as well as regulations from other agencies concerning 
audible noise, ozone generation, magnetic fields, electric fields, etc, 
etc, etc... a virtual ocean of regulations, well at least a couple big 
boxes that we have collected in a recent search.

these regulations apply of course only to the u.s.a., other countries
may have different regulations or limits.
