SedgeHammer is a post-emergent herbicide to control nutsedge and listed broadleaf weeds. You will need to spray existing exposed plants for the active ingredient to be absorbed systemically down through the roots and nutlets of the plant. If used correctly on the lawn areas, then this product would not harm an above-ground pool in the area.
Sedgehammer would be a good choice if you are looking for a post emergent product for nut grass. Please take a few moments to read over the Sedgehammer product label to be sure it will be safe for your turfgrass.
You can plant new flower seeds 4-6 weeks after SedgeHammer Herbicide application.
You will use one scoop of SedgeHammer Herbicide in one or two gallons of water to treat 1000 square feet.

SedgeHammer Herbicide is not labeled for dollarweed and is mainly used to control grassy weeds.

Your desirable turfgrass is likely under a lot of extra stress due to the summer heat right now, so it would be better to wait the 2 weeks for the Tenacity application to work before applying another herbicide for the same target weeds. Sedgehammer will take about 2-4 weeks to show results on nutsedge, too, so you will need to be a little patient when treating for this weed.
