Which of the following best completes the passage below?
At a recent meeting on environmental threats off the coast of the state of Maine, most participants favored uniform controls on the quality of food fed to salmon species in fish farms located along the coast of the state. Such controls were overwhelmingly supported without regard to whether or not specific environmental damage could be linked to a particular type of food being used. What must, of course, be shown, in order to mitigate the risk of excessively restrictive controls, is that _____ .
(A) all agreed upon controls that are uniform in nature will be implemented without any delay
(B) all fish foods that will be the subject of controls are known to actually cause environmental damage off the coast of Maine
(C) the meeting participants favoring uniform controls are primarily from an industry that competes with the salmon farmers
(D) all of the chemicals that are ingredients in some of the controlled substances are known to cause environmental damage
(E) the environmental damage that has historically been caused by the dangerous fish foods is not reversible in the foreseeable future, if ever

B should be the answer. If all of the fish foods that will be the subject of the control are known to actually cause the environmental damage then the control will meet its objective and the risk of excessive control will be mitigated.

The argument says the following
"mitigate the risk of excessively restrictive controls, is that"
This means that the author wants an option that mitigated the risk of excessively restrictive controls which means he wants some controls in place so isn't option D better suited
If the answer is A then why D is wrong pls help explain as D is sort of bringing in a reason to doubt so that excessive controls are not put in place
