Its not specifically stated in 680.26 (C) (3) to answer your question, #3 comes into play if the structual steel is the incapsulated non-corrssive style or reinforcing steel.

Since no specific parameters are given I would say the amount of steel used in framing the walls of the pool is all that required.

If the steel in the deck conforms to the requirements of the building code such as section 1903.5 of the IBC and complies with the ACI 318, it should be suitable to be used as the equipotential grid.
Remember that 680.26 doesn't mandate or require steel to be in the deck. It only requires the steel, if present, to be bonded as a part of the grid. The requirements for the deck steel is mandated by the building codes.
