## Discrepancy

NOTICED ISSUE DURING A DELIVERY INSPECTION AFTER MAINTENANCE WAS COMPLETED. FOUND APU BOTTLE DISCHARGED BY LOOKING AT THE PRESSURE GAUGE IN THE TAILCONE. NO INDICATION IN THE COCKPIT THAT THE BOTTLE WAS DISCHARGED. FIRE BOTTLE SQUIB WAS DISCHARGED.  REPLACED FIRE BOTTLE AND SQUIB.  AIRCRAFT WAS RELEASED FOR FLIGHT. THIS REPORT IS A CORRECTION TO A REPORT SUBMITTED IN 12/6/2016.  "PROBLEM DESCRIPTION" WAS THE ONLY AREA THAT HAD CHANGES.
