Seeking clarity

PMBOK page: 312 -  The implementation of a contingency plan or workaround sometimes results in a change request.


Does this mean that implementing a contingency plan will not result in a secondary risk?

No, it does not say that. Implementing contingency plans may result in secondary risks. 

 It may or may not result in secondary risk alos, if these implentation of contingency plan or workaround impacts project objectives, cost/chedule base lines, then it should be a change request and must undergo change process.
