You could do worse than start at by taking a look at http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-address-space

Then block non-US addresses such as those assigned by regional registries such as
- RIPE (Europe and the Middle East)
- LACNIC (Latin America)
- APNIC (Asia Pacific)

Also think about looking at the blacklists floating about the 'Net, as there are also culpirts in the better regulated regions (US, Canada, Western Europe)

Does anyone have a list or know where to obtain one

purpose of blocking ALL access from all non-US
locations unless implicitly allowed.
