Default Re: Descend Via Clearance at KIAD

I've flown this arrival at IAD (and the other RNAV arrivals there which are very similar) on several occasions and can clarify.

The ZDC (Washington Center) controller will issue a crossing restriction at FALKO and hand you off to Potomac approach. The Potomac controllers will welcome you with "Descend via the BARIN1 arrival", or occasionally, "Fly the BARIN1 arrival, I'll call your altitudes," if they need you to deviate from the published altitudes at all.

Fox X Ray handled the legality portion nicely ... this is how it is generally done in actual practice.
