For locations of Border Defense Regiments as well as other units the book below can be downloaded for free:

Right Sizing the People's Liberation Army: Exploring the Contours of China's Military
http://www.strategicstudiesinstitute.army.mil/pubs/display.cfm?pubID=784

Page 373, Xizang means Tibet in Chinese.

For Information using original documents on how China sent troops to Tibet in 1989:
"The China 1989 Army Documents: Volume 1" from Amazon.

It's also worthwhile to mention how only units of the 149th Division are documented to have been airlifted to Lhasa in 1989 and 2008. Any claims on the 15th Army in the Himalaya or even the LAC remain to be confirmed.
