which of the following statements most accurately describes a mitigation report?
A mitigation report is a document that explains what steps were taken (or will be taken) to reduce the severity, impact, or likelihood of a identified risk, hazard, or harm, often in a legal, insurance, or risk‑management context. It typically connects specific risks or harmful events to concrete mitigation measures and provides evidence or analysis showing how those measures lessen future damage or justify a particular decision (such as sentencing, coverage, or project approval).
