## Discrepancy

DURING DESCENT, THE CREW RECEIVED AN APU FIRE WARNING.  THE QRH WAS COMPLIED WITH AND THE MESSAGE EXTINGUISHED PRIOR TO DISCHARGING THE APU FIRE BOTTLE.  THE TOWER DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AND THE AIRCARFT LANDED SAFELY.  EMERGENCY VEHICLES MET AND FOLLOWED THE AIRCRAFT TO THE GATE AS A PRECAUTION.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE AFT EQUIPMENT BAY, AUXILIARY POWER UNIT (APU) ENCLOSURE AND PERFORMED A SYSTEM TEST.  NO DEFECTS WERE NOTED.  OPERATIONAL CHECKS GOOD.  AIRCRAFT OK FOR SERVICE.  (K)
