Is there a way to reset the admin password for the surveillance application zoneminder without re-installing the application? I was not able to find this information in the documentation or by googling it.

Try looking at the /etc/apache2/conf.d/zoneminder.conf I doubt the password is in there in plain-text but worth a shot.

After a quick look it does use a sql backend and likely the users/passwords are in there. Since the install states to use a different password for sql you could try getting in there though the passwords (Hopefully) are encrypted.
You can use something like http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/mysql-query-browser to see the database tables/rows
