RE: Please Review: Providing Heading elements at the beginning of each section of content

We may need to modify the test procedure.

<current>
1. Check that each section is marked with an h element describing the section.
</current>

<proposed>
1. Check that each section is marked with an h element.
</proposed> 

SC 2.4.1 is at L1. Descriptive headings are at L3 (ugh!). So at L1 all we can check for is that headings are present.
