EEE Ban Lifted — Nov. 9
The much anticipated “hard freeze” finally occurred last night (November 8, 2019) Temp’s averaged below 27 degrees for close to 10 hours. As such, the dusk to dawn ban on outdoor activities is lifted.
Please see the notice below from the Board of Health:
BOH update 11.9
NOV. 4 – EEE Ban UPDATED: 4pm – 7am
OCTOBER 1 – REVISED TIME LIMITS TO ACTIVITY BAN / CURFEW
Please see the notice below from the Board of Health:
The Board of Health, at our meeting on Tuesday night 10/22, voted to advise residents to continue to follow Massachusetts Department of Public Health guidelines to reduce the risk of Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) and West Nile Virus, including restricting outdoor activities after dusk. Carver’s EEE risk remains at CRITICAL LEVEL” until a wide spread hard freeze, which consists of temperatures below 28 degrees for a minimum of 4 consecutive hours, occurs.
Nov. 2nd marks the end of daylight saving. So effective Sunday, Nov. 3rd, the ban on outdoor activities will begin at 4:00 pm and extend until 7:00 am.
We will continue to monitor the weather conditions and once the hard freeze is confirmed by MDPH and the “State of Emergency” is lifted, we will let everyone know. We appreciate your continued cooperation.

OCTOBER 1 – REVISED TIME LIMITS TO ACTIVITY BAN / CURFEW
Please see the notice below from the Board of Health:
Effective Tuesday, October 1st, all outside activities shall be suspended from 5 pm to 7:30 am until further notice. Please note this is an important modification of the original dusk to dawn ban as the days are getting shorter. If a hard frost does not occur before the end of October, the times for the curfew will, again, be reviewed and adjusted. This decision is based on the continued cases of EEE being found throughout the State, some being fatal. The current threat level remains at “CRITICAL”, there is no higher level. This is the Board’s responsibility to you, the public.
This is not a voluntary curfew! It applies to all properties under the
jurisdiction of the Town of Carver. It applies to all sports programs at CMHS. It applies to all Town recreational programs. Please, if you must be outside between 5 pm and 7:30 am, wear appropriate clothing (long sleeve shirts and pants) and use an EPA approved insect repellent. It’s called personal protection!
On behalf of your Board of Health, we appreciate your Understanding of how serious this threat is and your cooperation in keeping everyone safe. We really don’t want to have a confirmed case or death from EEE in Carver.
