So I deal with this constantly as I build wall panel pools. The plans always show depth to top of the wall not water depth. A 72" pool is actually 67ish. My overflows are in the skimmer amd it's at 3/4 high on face of skimmer when full. When doing deep end it's best to round down to half feet so call this pool 5.6" water depth
Now I dont know how much the depth means to you, but the cheap way is to remove skimmer amd raise it up a few inches, patch the shell, and add to the bond beam with a new pour and raise the grade a little. Usually do able on most properties where pool is stand alone in yard. If its tieing into existing stuff then not gonna work
