Accoding to Wiki, the carrier group is there since April 5, 2008 in replacement of carrier group Kitty Hawk stationned at Japan.

The US always have a carrier group in Japan. So...old news. Maybe they've put the carrier group closer to NK, but I don't think so... it's Hal Turner the FBI agent after all.
