The No-Delay Beds tab is on the MODFLOW Layer Groups dialog box.

On the No-Delay Beds tab, the user enters the name of a system of interbeds that respond without a time delay to the loss of water. The name will be used to create four data sets. The name of each data set will begin with the name of the system of interbeds and end with one of the values in the following table.

If a layer group is discretized into multiple layers, the user must also specify which layers in the layer group the interbed system is associated with. If Use in All Layers is checked, every layer in the layer group system will be associated with the interbed system. The user can also choose which layer or layers in the layer group are associated with the interbed system by checking the appropriate check boxes.
