Maui\u2019s Emergency<\/a> Management Agency administrator announced his resignation Thursday, a day after getting questioned about why the sirens did not sound during the devastating Lahaina wildfires, according to reports.<\/p>\n

Hawaii News Now reported that Herman Andaya claimed he was resigning for health reasons.<\/p>\n

When the death toll rose to 111 on Wednesday, Andaya defended not sounding the sirens during the blaze, saying authorities were “afraid that people would have gone mauka<\/a>,” a Hawaiian navigational term that could mean toward the mountains or inland.<\/p>\n

“If that was the case, then they would have gone into the fire,” he added.<\/p>\n

Honolulu Civil Beat reported Wednesday that Andaya was not an expert in emergency management<\/a> when he was brought on in 2017 to lead the Maui Emergency Management agency.<\/p>\n

The article claimed his educational background is in political science and the law, not disaster preparedness or response. He also never worked a full-time job in emergency management.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, he told Civil Beat as chief of staff<\/a> to former mayor Alan Arakawa, he assisted in emergency operations.<\/p>\n

When he was hired in 2017, Andaya edged out 40 other candidates for the position, Maui Now reported.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
