The wave pool at BSR Cable Park in Waco, Texas, will reopen to the public on March 8 after it was abruptly closed last year following the death of a surfer who was a victim of the Nalgeria Fowlery bacteria, also known as the brain-eating amoeba.

The BSR posted that while it is not yet known if that is where the deceased surfer contracted the bacteria, they did install a new water filtration system that looks like this:

“There are a number of things that go into creating crystal clear water. We’re basically making water that’s drinkable and we’re pretty close, guys,” owner Stuart Parsons explained in the video posted to the social media site on Wednesday. The initial plan was for the wave pool to reopen March 2 next to the resort. The new facility will use 4 million gallons of water a day for surfing alone and was designed by Water Tech Solutions, a water treatment company.

Waco Pool burst onto the surfing scene on its opening day in May, at the same time as the Founders Cup, the first open tournament held at Slater Pool.

The amount of waves in a short time, the variety, and what many called "the best aerials section of the pools" made it one of the most popular pools. By far even better than Slater's.

In September, a man's death was linked to his previous visit to the wave pool. Authorities found traces of the bacteria and while it is not known for certain whether he contracted it there, the pool was closed with promises of improving the water quality.
