If you are concerned about fault lines, you can order maps from the U.S. Geological Survey. This U.S. govermental agency provides many types of maps and information that can help you determine the likelihood of seismic activity in various U.S. regions. However, many smaller faults have not been discovered;therefore, they will not appear on any map.

Google earth is an excellent source for finding the fault lines you requested. You can see fault lines, topography and even satellite pictures of any given area.

The US Geologic Society would be your best bet to get a map. They produce a Earthquake hazard Map that you can purchase. I googled Map US Fault lines and was able to locate it online.
