Aperture synthesis CS(J = 2-1) observations of the disk structure of the dense molecular gas around the young stellar object GL 490 are performed with 4-arcsec resolution using the Nobeyama Millimeter Array. The gas is found to have a noncircular velocity of about (1-1.5) km/s/sin i (i = inclination angle of the disk) and a mass of about 10 solar masses inside an 8500 AU region of the disk. According to the disk orientation indicated from one-sided cone-shaped optical and IR nebulocities, and the bipolar CO outflow, the noncircular motion is interpreted as inflow. The accretion time scale of the gas is estimated to be about 30,000 yr and the mass accretion rate to be 0.0003 solar mass/yr.
