this could help:
  http://trac.osgeo.org/proj/wiki/GenParms

see also the proj4 documentation for your projection type which
discusses parameters used for by that projection.

Does this look right?

If so, then the proj4 string is here:

for those interested the solution to my problem was that the metadata
was reporting in ft. and the proj 4 string is in meters. I wish Jimi

for what its worth,
