Are you familiar with making Word macros? - I've made some that turn stacked to paragraph

I just used the find/replace function (Ctrl + H) in Word to seek out the ^p (for paragraph mark) and replace that with nothing. (You may also possibly need to replace with space/s rather than nothing, depending on how your text is actually set up, but I don't need to do that with my EditScript, only need to delete the paragraphs.)  

You could make at least 2 macros, one for however many default paragraph replacements you want, maybe 8 to 10 or more times, and then another for a single replacement for when you get near the end of each report section since the times needed for the major repetitions will be inconsistent.  (I use Ctrl + 6 and Ctrl + 7 as my command keys, but anything you have free would do.)  

With the example you gave, if it's really double-spaced, looks like you'd actually want to replace/delete ^p a good 16 times or so, maybe.  But if you use it for ROS too, like I do, then you might want one that does it a fewer number of times, or maybe make like 3 of them; e.g., 1 ^p deletion, 8 deletions, 16 deletions.  

I'd suggest copying your above example right into Word before recording the macro, makes it easier to see what you're doing.
