Selected Answer: A
The original risk response plan may render obsolete or may not be ideal way to response to the risk resulted on the high level of risk. The Project Manager has proposed an alternative solution and in an efficient way. Therefore, first (answer A) need to submit the new response plan for review, and then second (answer B) get approval prior to implement the new risk response plan and then third (answer C) implement the new response to address the risk. You can rule out D. Therefore the correct answer is A being what the PM need to do first.

B is the right answer. Obtaining management approval prior to implementing the new risk response ensures that the change is in line with the project's overall objectives and that key decision-makers are aware of and support the proposed change.
