Narrative:
Aircraft X never received a descend via clearance from ZTL dalas sector for the stowl 1 arrival; contradictory to the new ZTL/A80 letter of agreement. The optimum profile descents need to stop at the 40 NM boundary from atl with ZTL. This way; the A80 controllers will know exactly what the aircraft are doing and can take action if needed to protect adjacent airspace and other aircraft.
