The pool had a leak (I found out when a nearly $400 over normal water bill arrived) so yesterday a guy came to determine where the leak was located and today the repairman came to do the repair.  The water level had to be pumped down so he could access the area of the leak, so thankfully we have a salt water chlorinator and the water could easily go into the bay.  Interesting process to watch, but not pay for..... :(
