The web search results confirm that a ban on invasive plants, including the Bradford pear tree, is being discussed or implemented in New Jersey. However, the provided evidence does not contain multiple independent sources confirming the specific details of 'a new law' banning the tree and '29 other non-native plants' with the exact scope described. The evidence points to the existence of such a law/action but lacks the necessary corroboration to move beyond a single-source assessment based on the provided search snippets.

The web search results confirm that the Bradford pear tree ban is associated with New Jersey. While Wikipedia provides general information about New York State, none of the gathered evidence explicitly state that New York has *not* banned the trees, only that the ban is happening in NJ. Therefore, the claim cannot be corroborated or refuted with the evidence provided.

One web search result mentions that 'Starting 13 months after the law was signed, no one may propagate or import any of the banned plants without a waiver.' This suggests a future requirement, but no other source corroborates the specific date or the waiver requirement for this action.

The claim specifies a date of February 20, 2030. While one web search result discusses the phased-out nature of the ban, it does not contain the specific date of February 20, 2030. The evidence is insufficient to verify this specific date, but it is derived from a source discussing the law's timeline.

While the web search results discuss penalties for various violations (e.g., OFAC violations, export control violations), none of the provided evidence specifically state that violating the Bradford pear tree ban results in fines of up to $2,000.
