North Stonington Surface water testing that would provide early signs of impending sewage problems has not been done by the town since 1976, according to a request for proposals published last month.
The town sought bidders to resume and reevaluate a water quality monitoring program launched by the Water Pollution Control Authority in 1972. The program aimed to periodically test samples from surface waters such as lakes, ponds and rivers that potentially could be polluted by failing septic systems.
The request for proposals, which closed July 16, yielded no bidders, and First Selectman Mike Urgo said the Board of Selectmen will begin exploring future ways to implement the testing program.

Groton Democrats, who control the Town Council, announced a council slate that did not include incumbent Portia Bordelon, though she received endorsements for Board of Education and Representative Town Meeting.
Republicans put forward a slate with both newcomers and people long involved in town politics, and are vying to reestablish two-party rule on the Town Council, which has been all-Democratic for the past two election cycles.
Democrats on Wednesday announced a slate that included council incumbents Juliette Parker, administrative assistant to the Groton City police chief; Rachael Franco, business manager at Norwich Family Dental Associates; Juan Melendez, who also has served on the RTM and Water Pollution Control Authority; Aundré Bumgardner, a city Planning and Zoning Commission members and former state representative; and Democratic Town Committee Chairman Conrad Heede.
