Our project has a nice white roof that I know to be compliant when new. This one is not 12 years old. Is it enough to submit the confirming documentation as the building owner still has the shop drawing? Or, do we need to get the roof cleaned?

If the roof was compliant when new then it will comply with the requirement of the credit. The LEED online template does not ask project teams to upload a maintenance plan.
LEED EBOM requires project teams to verify they will clean the roof every two years to maintain good reflectance.
It is recommended to clean the roof regularly however LEED CI 2009 does not enforce this policy at this time.
Hope this helps!
