我觉得也可以，还原为 A ,who is  worrying about ....,has done sth.表示一种进行时态。这儿worry就是用做动词。

titatita

worried 形容词,表示一种状态,这里时 administration,who is worried about省略了which is的形式

worring是动词worry的现在分词,强调动作

这是一种常见的语法现象

人作主语用形容词表示状态

物作主语用现在分词表达令人...的

如

I was interested in playing football.

The book is interesting
