Default "landing zone" airspace for contest to IGC rules in US

I am working on the turnpoint file for a contest in the US that will be run to IGC rules instead of US/SSA rules. I could use some help with this request.

"The Landing Zone must show up in the AirSpace file, so people don't have to guess where it is, and the limit of it is officially defined. Very easy to include in a sua file." "The airspace within 1 km of the Gliderport and below 1500' MSL is designated as a Landing Zone. Pilots may enter the Landing Zone only from above and no continuous circling is allowed after entry.. Landing Zone violations will result in penalties."


Only slightly off track: Can you please post a link to where this rule may be found?

TIA,
