We have a LEED submittal from a major manufacturer that indicates the location of extraction of adhesive raw materials is 244 miles from project site. When a major manufacturer documents this as the raw material location on their official LEED material form is there a need to question whether the raw materials that make up the adhesive are actually extracted at the indicated location?

In other words, can you take them at their word? Yes.However, I would not simply rely on a cut sheet. I would also get a letter from the manufacturer stating the extraction distance, especially if they aren't giving you the location. This is based on documentation requested on LEED Online.
