Flight Service Specialist stated several UAS operators received authorization by an Enroute Facility to fly within airspace that requires communication with the FSS. The reporter stated these operations had been not been coordinated with the FSS and they were unable to advise traffic in the area of specific UAS operations.

Narrative

I work as a flight service specialist at Ketchikan. While working IF1 I am required to give traffic advisories of aircraft in my zone. We are the only flight service in the country with a SFRA that requires communication within 10 NM of the airport. We now have multiple drone operators operating within our Class E airspace that got approval from Anchorage Center. The authorization do not require a NOTAM and no coordination was [given]. Multiple operators did give us a heads up but were not required to. We have no way of knowing when operators will be operating other than the honor system. And we have a large amount of float traffic in the area. We need specific times dates and locations in order for people to easily be able to avoid [the] areas. Today we issued a NOTAM because the pilots did let us know they would be flying but it was very non-specific and had about the same usefulness as bird in the vicinity. In the one authorization that we received; the paperwork stated that the emergency contact was ZZZ. All traffic below 3;000 feet and within our [Class] E is required to be on our frequency. This scares me and I have a real hard time notifying anyone whether or not drones will be flying.
