We need to produce HTML fragment with headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No metadata like Job ID. Remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, legal, scam warning, application instructions. We need to preserve all substantive info.
Let's parse the posting.
Content:

Specific vision abilities required by this job include close vision, distance vision, color vision, peripheral vision, depth perception and ability to adjust focus. Work is primarily performed outdoors so physical exposure to often extreme weather conditions, animals and insects and other outdoor hazards is unavoidable and required.
We need to separate sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (maybe experience, CDL, HS diploma), Qualifications (maybe safety commitment, ability to bring crew?), Skills (maybe list of specific abilities), Benefits (benefits described), Pay (competitive wages mentioned), Schedule (maybe overtime, travel, extended periods? Not explicit schedule like shift times). The posting mentions "competitive wages" but no specific amount, so we cannot create Pay section if it's just "competitive wages" without detail? The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state "competitive wages" which is a statement about pay, albeit vague. Is that enough? The rule says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. "competitive wages" is a statement but not a specific number; is that considered filler? It's not a specific detail but it's a statement. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might be okay to include Pay with "competitive wages". However, they said "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state competitive wages, so we can include Pay with that sentence. Similarly Benefits: they list many benefits, so include Benefits. Schedule: they mention overtime, travel long distances on short notice, work extended periods in various locations, work outside frequently in inclement weather, work overtime when required. That's about schedule flexibility but not a set schedule. Could we include Schedule with those details? The rule: never create Schedule section unless posting actually states them. It does mention overtime, travel, extended periods. So we could include Schedule with those points.
We need to avoid boilerplate: EEO statements, drug-free workplace, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove "NOTE This job description is not intended to be all-inclusive..." and "We are an Equal Opportunity Employer..." etc. Also remove "Sumter Utilities Inc. is an Equal Opportunity - Drug & Alcohol Free Workplace Employer". Also remove the final parentheses about EEO etc. Also remove "Work safely while performing..."? That's part of responsibilities, keep.

We need to use for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's decide sections:
- About the role: introductory paragraph(s) about role, safety core value, preference for bringing crew, etc.
- Responsibilities: list of duties (the long list). Could be many items; we can put them as
- each.
- Requirements: maybe HS diploma or equivalent, CDL (Class A preferred, may need to obtain within 90 days), ability to bring crew? Actually bringing crew is preference not requirement. Also safety commitment is a selection weight. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. Let's treat Requirements as: HS Diploma or equivalent, CDL (Class A preferred, may need to obtain within 90 days). Also maybe "existing Overhead Distribution experience as a B Class lineman or long-term experience as an Apprentice Lineman able to demonstrate readiness to grow into a greater role." That's experience requirement.
- Qualifications: maybe safety commitment, ability to work in team, ability to learn, etc. But many of those are skills. Might be better to combine Requirements and Qualifications? But we need to follow headings only if real content. Could have Requirements (experience, education, CDL) and Skills (list of specific abilities). Qualifications maybe not needed.
- Skills: list of specific abilities like setting poles, reading blueprints, etc. That's many.
- Benefits: list of benefits.
- Pay: competitive wages.
- Schedule: overtime, travel, extended periods, work outside in inclement weather.
We need to ensure we don't create thin sections. But we have a lot of content.
Let's extract each piece.
