I can see value in having someone capable of issuing alerts who is geographically _on_ Hawaii, as the potential for dropped communication lines seems problematic.

I don't know enough about military/federal operations to know whether having them handle it would imply keeping operations on the islands, or if they'd literally "centralize" it to somewhere on the continental US.
