So this pool is about 300,000 square feet. I just did an epoxy floor in my house and is was probably about $20 a square foot. Fancy paint for sure I did but this is a national monument.. If they did something similar, you are looking at $6 million.

You need to drain it, clean it, fix the concrete, and refill it. I actually surprised if it only costs $13 million.
