Hi Paul,
Its not just the extents but all the data in the file is in a UTM
projection. You can reproject the file to WGS84 and then ogrinfo will
report in long-lat.
ogr2ogr -t_srs EPSG:4326 OldStreamsPolyline-wgs84.shp OldStreamsPolyline.shp
ogrinfo -so OldStreamsPolyline-wgs84.shp OldStreamsPolyline-wgs84

I ran ogrinfo on a shape file and got output. How do I convert the
extent listed below into lat long coordinates? It looks like the units
are meters, but I’m not sure how that will translate to lat long for
creating a bounding box:
