Applying gdalsrsinfo to a shapefile's .prj produced these results:
PROJ.4 : +proj=utm +zone=10 +datum=NAD83 +units=m +vunits=m +no_defs

The data are the Columbia River and southern Washington state.
It's been a couple of decades since I last dug into proj and I'd appreciate
being pointed to a document that will teach me which of the several EPSG
codes above is the one to which I want to apply to PROJ_INFO in the
PERMANENT mapset.
TIA,
Rich
