Hint is PM already identified this risk during Project Planning. Output of Identify Risk process is Risk register. Basically, a good PM w/ 4 values & 12 principles under PMI languages need to do this task with due diligent thus Risk register can be used later as sufficient reference regarding risk response plan when relevant risk happen. A is still the correct answer.
