Ben, 

I am attaching a list of USGS state plane zone numbers (the last number on 
each line) and their descriptions. The usgs numbers are just added to 10000
or 10030 to pick out the PCS code for the state plane zone in the EPSG tables.
Note that the SetStatePlane() method won't even work if the EPSG tables are
not accessable. 

The stateplane.txt file is also now checked into gdal/data, and should be
installed along with the csv files for EPSG in case an application wants to
parse it for display to the user. 

Best regards,
