Use a restrict to columns 11-20, inside this use a restrict to matching lines filter (using the list file), then mark each line with a special value such as by using an Add Left Margin with text of '###'.

Then, outside the filter, you can remove or keep all lines containing '###' before finally removing the '###' themselves with a search replace.
