ITEM 9. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE


On March 31, 2003, CMS Energy Corporation ("CMS Energy") and Consumers Energy
Company ("Consumers") determined that there was an inadvertent disclosure
regarding Consumers' internal forecast of corporate EBITDA for fiscal years 2003
and 2004. For fiscal year 2003, that internal forecasted number was $898
million, and for fiscal year 2004, that internal forecasted number was $936
million. As a matter of company policy, CMS Energy and Consumers do not publicly
disclose this information, and this Form 8-K is being furnished solely to
satisfy the requirements of Regulation FD in light of the inadvertent
disclosure. Neither CMS Energy nor Consumers intends to update these numbers or
release EBITDA information in the future.

This Form 8-K contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
safe harbor provisions of the federal securities laws. It should be read in
conjunction with the "CMS Energy Forward-Looking Statements, Cautionary Factors
and Uncertainties" in CMS Energy's Form 10-K for the Year Ended December 31,
2002 and the "Consumers Forward-Looking Statements, Cautionary Factors and
Uncertainties" in Consumers' Form 10-K for the Year Ended December 31, 2002 that
discuss important factors that could cause CMS Energy's and Consumers' results
to differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.

                                   SIGNATURES


Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Registrants have duly caused this report to be signed on their behalf by the
undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
