Nacelle design

Can anyone tell me what the purpose of small holes are, that are drilled into the circumference of a nacelle.

On the Citation II with the JT15D engine there are a row of small holes (+/- 3mm) about every 2 cm, the whole circumference, drilled into the nacelle just behind the lip.

I have seen it on other engines too.

Many thanks

Ken
