809. The proposed urban development zones do not represent a new principle; it was employed in “Operation Bootstrap” in Puerto Rico.
(A) do not represent a new principle; it
(B) represent not a new principle, but one that
(C) are not a new principle; the same one
(D) are not a new principle, but one that
(E) are not new in principle; it
why C is wrong?

IMHO A.

The proposed urban development zones are not principles. They represent a new principle. Please let me know if i'm wrong.

The correct option is 'B'.

The "urban development zones" can represent some principles but they can not be principles themselves as suggested by options 'C', 'D' and 'E'.
Option 'A' will be ruled out because "it" in the second sentence incorrectly refers to "urban development zones".
