Is the Town of Speedway going to get polluted water? This question should be considered by all residents of Speedway. IPs a serious question and needs some Immediate thought and attention by yon, the people. Let’s start with first things first—We receive some of our water from a filtration and pumping station on 10th Street and Eagle Creek.
